Mitchell also includes lesser-known prodigies, such as Johann Bernoulli and Sophie Germain.Throughout the book, Mitchell provides detailed descriptions of the mathematical achievements of each prodigy, including their theories and formulas. He also explores the personal lives of these prodigies, including their upbringing, education, and relationships with other mathematicians.Mathematical Prodigies is a fascinating look at the lives and work of some of the most brilliant minds in history.
