Aspects of Galois Theory with an application to the general quintic
"In 1824, the Norwegian mathematician N. H. Abel (1802-1829) proved that the general polynomial equation of degree greater than four with real numbers as coefficients is not solvable by radicals. That is, the roots cannot be expressed by a formula involving only rational operations and radicals...
