<p>A little boy growing up in Calcutta (now Kolkata) is brilliant in mathematics.</p><p>In school, he is forever remembered as the only student to ever score 110</p><p>out of 100 in maths! The boy, Satyendranath Bose, would go on to propose</p><p>theories that would change the fi eld of physics forever.</p><p>In 1924, Satyendranath Bose wrote a scientifi c paper that impressed the most</p><p>famous scientist in the world-Albert Einstein. This paper was translated</p><p>by Einstein into German and published for the world to read. Satyendranath</p><p>Bose's fi ndings were groundbreaking in the statistical foundations of quantum</p><p>mechanics. He carried out statistical calculations for the kind of particles</p><p>that were named after him-the boson. Einstein extended his work and</p><p>predicted the lowest energy state, called the Bose-Einstein Condensate. It was</p><p>experimentally achieved in the twentieth century, seventy years later!</p><p>This is the story of an astonishing mind that loved to learn, whether it was</p><p>science, literature, or music. It is also about a man who was admired by the</p><p>greatest scientists of all time. Satyendranth Bose's fi ndings in the area of</p><p>physics made him immortal. This is his amazing story.</p>
