Emmy Noether was born into a family of mathematicians and has been fascinated by science since childhood. Despite everything, she became a scientist and achieved unprecedented heights in her profession. She didn't care about the prejudice and discrimination she faced throughout her life as a woman and a Jew—her passion for science overshadowed everything else. When Albert Einstein arrived at the University of Göttingen, it was Emmy Noether who led him into the world of abstract algebra, without which the famous theory of relativity would have been impossible. In her theorem, she elegantly proved the fundamental connection between symmetry and the conservation law. This book is a hymn to Noether's resilience and genius, which inspire women in science a century later. "Emmy Noether devoted her life to the study of pure mathematics, although she had to face a number of cruel injustices that arose for only one reason — she was a woman. She wanted to study mathematics at university, but women were not allowed to go there. She went to work at the university at the invitation of the world's greatest mathematician — but did not get a place on the staff or any pay. She became one of the first victims of the Nazi purges of university staff, as she was both a woman and a Jew. If, a century later, we had somehow been able to distinguish Noether's voice, we would not have heard the plaintive lamentations. Instead, we would have heard the loud laughter that her compatriots so often described." (Lee Phillips)
