Albert Einstein, one of the greatest scientific thinkers of modern times died in 1955, at the age 76, at Princeton. Hours after his demise, his brain was taken for scientific study to see if it could reveal the mystery of the genius. Einstein was cremated within 24 hours, his brain was taken out secretly without any public knowledge.
The autopsy on Einstein was the standard procedure, the official file of the autopsy has been missing. Einstein had blood to death due to a rupture in a blood vessel. The brain was removed in the autopsy. Einstein's brain was cut into 240 sections those were saved in alcohol solution. Dr. Thomas Harvey from the University Medical Center, Princeton was responsible for removing the brain of Einstein.
Nature or nurture dominates; are geniuses born or made is the content of this blog. To the question, what does it take to be a genius, Einstein answered that, its the ability to ask questions that only children would ask. His discoveries originated from the question: what happens when one rides along with the light. Einstein said it also takes continuous working, thinking on the solutions to the asked questions. Its because Einstein stayed with the problems for long times. 99 times the conclusion is wrong but the 100th time the conclusion is right. Now who wants to be the next genius, anyone?
