first edition in book form of the writings of Galois, who was killed in a duel in 1832 at the age of 20. In applying group theory to the problem of the solvability of algebraic equations, "he . . . laid one of the foundations of modern algebra. The few sketches of other works that he devoted to the theory of elliptic functions and that of Abelian integrals and his reflections on the philosophy and methodology of mathematics display an uncanny foreknowledge of modern mathematics"--DSB V, 260.
