A Brief History of Évariste Galois
In this episode, we cover the history of Évariste Galois, a 19th century mathematician, notable for his fundamental contributions to group theory, who only spent about 5-6 years doing mathematics before his untimely death at the hands of a duel when he was just 20 years old.
