Is it okay to stick this up there?

I'm writing this paper thats getting posted onto the school bulletin board and I'm having a hard time with a sentence. Is the following sentence grammatically correct?

While evaluating patent applications for electromagnetic devices, Einstein’s mind wandered away from his desk-and, some might say, his body- wondering how the world of physics really worked.

I'm mostly concerned about the hyphens.

Thanks :)

    That's really cool if your paper is getting posted on the school bulletin board. Although the last few words don't make sense. Instead of that try this: "While evaluating patent applications for electromagnetic devices, Einstein's mind wandered away from his desk. Some people might say that his body was wondering on how the world of physics really worked." HOPE I HELPED
