{"product_id":"sophies-diary","title":"Sophie's Diary","description":"Sophie Germain overcame gender stigmas and a lack of formal education to prove that for all prime exponents less than 100 Case I of Fermat's Last Theorem holds. Hidden behind a man's name, her brilliance as mathematician was first discovered by three of the greatest scholars of the eighteenth century, Lagrange, Gauss, and Legendre. In \u003ci\u003eSophie's Diary\u003c\/i\u003e, Germain comes to life through a fictionalized journal that intertwines mathematics with historical descriptions of the brutal events that took place in Paris between 1789 and 1793. This format provides a plausible perspective of how a young Sophie could have learned mathematics on her own--both fascinated by numbers and eager to master tough subjects without a teacher's guidance. Her passion for mathematics is integrated into her personal life as an escape from societal outrage. Sophie's Diary is suitable for a variety of readers--both young and old, mathematicians and novices--who will be inspired and enlightened on a field of study made easy, as told through the intellectual and personal struggles of an exceptional young woman.","brand":"American Mathematical Society","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54260952498520,"sku":"9781470471569","price":43.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781470471569.jpg?v=1779182125","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/sophies-diary","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
