Albert Einstein
In the aftermath of the First World War, Albert Einstein wrote about his hopes for the League of Nations, his feelings as a German citizen among the growing anti-Semitism and nationalism of his country, and his myriad opinions about the current affairs of his day. In addition to these political perspectives, The World as I See It reveals the idealistic, spiritual, and witty side of this great intellectual as he approaches topics including good and evil, religion and science, active pacifism, Christianity and Judaism, and minorities.
Including letters, speeches, articles, and essays written before 1935, this collection offers a complete portrait of Einstein as a humanitarian and as a human being trying to make sense of the world changing around him.

The focus of his writing here is less about mathematics, physics, and science, than it is about his idealism. Einstein seems to have had a deep suspicion of what the Nazis might do with his Theory of Relativity a decade before the Manhattan Project succeeded in splitting the atom.
Interestingly, after the War, Einstein wrote, "We must not condemn man because his conquest of the forces of nature have been exploited for destructive purposes. Rather, the fate of mankind hinges entirely upon man's moral development". Today we owe him a great debt of gratitude, no only for his math, but because he was a pacifist and not a Nazi.
The brilliant mathematician espouses pacifism.
