Abel
Niels Henrik Abel, from Norway, 1802-1829.
He died at age 26. Like Galois -- another young
mathematical genius who lived a short life.
He died of tuberculosis.
He was the first to prove that the general quintic
could not be soved by radicals. His works are often
recommended, but no book is available.
