  • The MacTutor History of Mathematics archive
  • A marvelous site from the University of St. Andrews, Scottland. A huge collection of biographies about famous mathematicians. There is hardly any one missing!

  • Galois' biography at MacTutor

  • Tony Rothman's Article on Evariste Galois
  • Tony Rothman's article "Genius and Biographers: The Fictionalization of Evariste Galois" is both a biography of Evariste Galois and a critical comparision other biographers' works. He uncovered lots of mistakes and misleading legends about Galois.

  • The Engines of Our Ingenuity: E. Galois
  • Go to this site, if you want to listen to Galois story, but it's quite simplified and wouldn't satisfy Rothman's standards.

  • Periodic Table of Mathematicians
  • Tip: You find Evariste Galois in the forth line as the element (Ge) beside of (Ga, Gaus) and (As, Appolonius)
