Description

Evariste Galois (1811-1832), el matemático más precoz de la historia, pasó en la cárcel el último año de su vida, detenido por sus ideas revolucionarias. Creador de la teoría que lleva su nombre, uno de los fundadores del álgebra moderna, revolucionó la matemática valorizando el uso de la noción de estructura. En sus convicciones filosóficas, excepcionalmente avanzadas para su época, basó su enfoque de la ciencia como actividad humana y colectiva.
