In summary, Kishore is looking for links to the works and papers of Gauss, Abel, and Galois. It is mentioned that Galois' works are not in English, while Gauss' great work on number theory can be found in English by Springer. Only one work by Abel has been read by the person responding. They provide a link to Gauss' work on Amazon and a book discussing Abel's legacy. Someone else has a specific need for a formal observation by Gauss related to general social behavior.

I have the same need only more specific. Iwant to find Gauss' formal observation," the math fundamental "Enigma of Asymptotic Infinity" is a "diabolically tanatious" fact as relating to general social behaviour.
