reviewed Conformal Field Theories on December 09, 2013 Conformal Field Theories
This was a helpful book for me. I teach an abstract algebra course every fall, and thought I understood its development fairly well, but this text showed me I was only familiar with one strand of the story. I was well aware of the Galois side of the history, but hadn't thought much about the way groups were used in number theory ended up merging with the groups/fields of Galois theory. Also: I always understood that Noether was an important figure in the early 20th century, but this book made me realize that I didn't really understand why. On the downside, at one point the author lists the 3 greatest mathematicians of history, and leaves out Euler. So that's why this only gets 4 stars.
