Although Bolyai knew nothing of mathematics at the age of 10, by the age of 13 he had mastered calculus and analytic mechanics under the tutelage of his father, the distinguished mathematician Farkas Bolyai. He also became an accomplished violinist at an early age and later was renowned as a superb swordsman. He studied at the Royal Engineering College in Vienna (1818-22) and served in the army engineering corps (1822-33). Appendix Scientiam Spatii Absolute Veram Exhibens ("Appendix Explaining the Absolutely True Science of Space"), a complete and consistent system of non-Euclidean geometry. Before his work was published, Bolyai found that he had largely been anticipated by Carl Gauss of Germany. This was a profound blow to Bolyai, even though Gauss had no claim to priority since he had never felt enough confidence in his findings to publish them. Bolyai allowed the "Appendix" to be published with his father's Tentamen Juventutem Studiosam in Elementa Matheseos Purae Introducendi (1832; "An Attempt to Introduce Studious Youth to the Elements of Pure Mathematics"), but the essay went unnoticed by other mathematicians. In 1848 he discovered that N.I. Lobachevsky had published an account of virtually the same geometry in 1829.

Extractions: This award-winning globe could help children become A+ geography students. The Explorer Globe II is jam-packed with hundreds of facts, trivia, and useful scholastic information about every aspect of the geographical world. It electronically verbalizes everything from area population, capitol city/country, state/province, large bodies of water, currencies, high points, distance, and more. Other remarkable features make the Explorer an even more useful reference tool. It has a world clock that, once set from your home area, will tell the time in every other part of the world. And any country can be selected to hear a sample its national music (yes, Tahiti does have a national anthem). The globe sits on a sturdy base, which features a dashboard full of interactive functions and an attached soft-tipped stylus. This stylus is the key instrument: use it to touch virtually any point on the surface of the globe to retrieve information. Diane Beall

Extractions: Version for printing Farkas Bolyai ... Farkas Bolyai ... when he was four he could distinguish certain geometrical figures, knew about the sine function, and could identify the best known constellations. By the time he was five he had learnt, practically by himself, to read. He was well above the average at learning languages and music. At the age of seven he took up playing the violin and made such good progress that he was soon playing difficult concert pieces. In 1816 Farkas wrote to his friend Gauss Gauss He studied at the Royal Engineering College in Vienna from 1818 to 1822 completing the seven year course in four years. He was an outstanding student and from his second year of study on he came top in most of the subjects he studied. He also had time to become an outstanding sportsman, and he continued to take his violin playing seriously and performed while in Vienna. His mother died on 18 September 1821 but he was able to continue his studies. When he graduated from the Academy on 6 September 1822 he had achieved such outstanding success that he spent a further year in Vienna on academic studies before entering military service. Of course he had received military training during his time in Vienna, for the summer months were devoted to this, but Bolyai's nature did not allow him to accept easily the strict military discipline.

Bolyai János Forradalma bolyai János a magyar tudomány legkiemelkedobb alakja, Hosszú ideig tartottamagát az a vélekedés, hogy bolyai János az 1833ban bekövetkezett http://www.kfki.hu/chemonet/TermVil/tv2002/tv0207/prekopa.html
Extractions: Hosszú ideig tartotta magát az a vélekedés, hogy Bolyai János az 1833-ban bekövetkezett nyugdíjaztatása után ugyan írt még egyet-mást, közöttük egy lényegeset is a komplex számok megalapozását illetõen, de az elismerés hiánya depresszióssá tette és lényegében a matematikai alkotó munkától is visszavonult. Kiss Elemér marosvásárhelyi professzor volt az, aki erre rácáfolt, miután egy évtizedes munkával a hátrahagyott Bolyai-kéziratokat átböngészte és azokban jelentõs, a kéziratok keletkezésekor új matematikai kincseket talált. Bolyai János tudományos nagyságát külföldön fedezték fel, a hazai elismerés csak ezután következett. A XIXXX. század fordulóján a kontinensen már széles körben ismertté vált mûve. Angolszász területen is voltak, akik megismerték és lelkesedtek érte, de jóval kevesebben, mint Európában. A második világháború után a világ kétpólusúvá vált. Az oroszok nem sokat emlegették Bolyai Jánost, õk inkább Lobacsevszkij érdemeit hangsúlyozták. Amerikában pedig, mint említettük, nem ismerték eléggé tudósunkat. 1977, amikor Gauss születésének 200. évfordulóját ünnepelték világszerte, újabb fordulatot hozott. Jóllehet korábban is számos matematikatörténeti tanulmány szerzõje Gausst tekintette a nemeuklideszi geometria elsõ számú felfedezõjének, ez a tendencia felerõsödött, háttérbe szorítva Lobacsevszkij személyét is. Az orosz szerzõk sikerrel érvelnek e nézetek ellen Lobacsevszkij érdekében. Nekünk magyaroknak is kötelességünk, hogy rámutassunk, hol van Bolyai János helye a matematikatörténetben és az egyetemes kultúrtörténetben. A nagyvilág elé kell tárnunk erre vonatkozó dokumentumainkat és kutatási eredményeinket.
