Summary "Niels Henrik Abel" by Magnus Gustaf Mittag-Leffler is a historical account that reflects on the life and scientific contributions of the renowned Norwegian mathematician, written during the early 20th century. The book delves into Abel's seminal work in the field of mathematics, particularly focusing on his development of the theory of elliptic functions and his influence on subsequent mathematical thought. At the start of this biographical work, the reader is introduced to Niels Henrik Abel's background, highlighting his birth into a family with a strong intellectual tradition, despite the challenges posed by poverty and his family's struggles with alcoholism. The narrative outlines Abel's early education, emphasizing the pivotal role of his mentor, Berndt Michael Holmboe, who recognized Abel's mathematical genius while grappling with the circumstances of his life. The opening chapters set the stage for a deeper exploration of Abel's groundbreaking mathematical ideas, his unfortunate early death, and his lasting legacy in the world of mathematics.
