A few weeks ago I received an extraordinary gift from the artist and writer, Stacy Saviski. Yes, it's an image of Einstein. Stunning, to be sure. But look closely at the "hair." Each bit is carefully cut from the pages of one of my papers on Einstein and then attached individually to the canvas.

Last year, I was interviewed for a podcast on Einstein produced by the Leo Baeck Institute, featuring prominent Jewish exiles from Nazism. Now a German version of the series has been produced, and the Einstein podcast was released today. If you've never heard me speaking German, here's your chance!

My latest acquisition. Published in 1929 in a limited edition to honor Einstein's fiftieth birthday. It is a collection of occasional remarks by Einstein on a wide variety of topics.

Which is worse? That Academia.edu is crossing a line by launching their own journals? Or that they think that I'm an expert on molecular biology and genomics?
