It doesn’t take an Einstein to recognize that Albert Einstein’s brain was very different from yours and mine. The gray matter housed inside that shaggy head managed to revolutionize our concepts of time, space, motion — the very foundations of physical reality — not just once but several times during his astonishing career. Yet while there clearly had to be something remarkable about Einstein’s brain, the pathologist who removed it from the great physicist’s skull after his death reported that the organ was, to all appearances, well within the normal range — no bigger or heavier than anyone else’s.
But a new analysis of Einstein’s brain by Canadian scientists reveals that it has some distinctive physical characteristics after all. A portion of the brain that governs mathematical ability and spatial reasoning — two key ingredients to the sort of thinking Einstein did best — was significantly larger than aver
A. provided
B. founded
C. stored
D. placed
