Jack of all trades
On monday we went to the Ampere House where we saw an overview of the works of Andre Ampere. The thing that surprised me was how diverse his work was. At the house we saw some documents with his work in biology as well as mathematics. I dont know if the fields of science and math were at a stage of development where someone could contribute so much to several fields or if Ampere was truly that innovative. Regardless it was impressive that his work was so diverse.

Ampere start out his career in mathematics to get prestige, so he could teach at local university support his family. Mathematics would later help him in his work with electric.
