Einstein’s Tutor: The Story of Emmy Noether and the Invention of Modern Physics.

Emmy Noether, a German mathematician, made significant contributions to physics that are often overlooked. In a groundbreaking 1918 paper, Noether elevated the law of energy conservation to a mathematical truth and demonstrated that Newton's laws of physics are constant regardless of location and time. Her work, combined with quantum mechanics, formed the standard model of physics in the mid-20th century. Despite her achievements, Noether received little credit, partly due to prejudice and her own lack of self-promotion. This book highlights her important breakthroughs and argues that she is one of the most important mathematicians in history. [Extracted from the article]
