Olivia Newton John's Grand Father

July 10, 2007 at 7:47 PM

Is Max Born, who came up with the foundation for Quantum Physics. But, as a Jew, Germany never gave him the credit; England, the country to which he fled, did.

It has been months ago that I read the book, but for years Max played with Albert Einstein, one played the piano and the other the violin.

"The End of the Certain World" by Nancy T. Greenspan is the name of the book which I read. Alibris.com has it, used, starting at $1.99 plus shipping. With T.V. and i-pods, it appears to be a buyer's market in used books. In the winter when I put my hay fields to bed, I gravitate to Alibris and my soapstone fireplace.

This makes perfect sense. Olivia N-J and quantum physics are both inexplicable. It runs in the family.
