Gauss was a child prodigy and a remarkable adult. In the eighteenth-century world in which every philosophe worth his patroness's salt called himself a mathematician, Gauss was the real article and proved it in a remarkable series of predictions and experiments, both in his mind and on the lab table. In this rendition of his story for young readers with an interest in science or mathematics, Tent describes Gauss as a child who could sum the numbers 1-100 for fun, who was a protégé of a Duke at about 11, who was dedicated to his domestic life even tough his career made him famous, and whose good fortune it was to live and work until he was over 75.
