What happens
The Paris Academy of Sciences has awarded Marie-Sophie Germain the grand prize for her essay on elasticity theory. She gained her education from books in her father's library and from correspondence with famous mathematicians such as Lagrange, Legendre, and Gauss. Prejudice against her gender has prevented her from making a career out of mathematics, but Sophie Germain is a mathematician, physicist, and philosopher in her own right.
