GH Hardy was a character. He had qualities that were odd, yet endearing. He was a rigorous mathematician. Yet, when he received a letter from Srinivasa Ramanujan, he changed. He learned a new way of equating mathematics, and developed a deep and loving respect for an individual who was never formally educated in math.

This is the story of a man who had the ability to see genius in another person, even when that person couldn't see it in themselves.
