Why Therfer?<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the Internet I am Therfer <\/strong><\/em>because that was my first nickname when I started on the networks, in the last century, back in 1991\u2026 <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reality should not be confused with the virtuality in Internet…<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fermi?<\/strong> For the sakes of life, I have been Enrico Fermi’s first biographer in Spanish \u2026 and then in other languages. Among many other things, I love how Fermi was able to calculate and solve problems directly and with little data, giving fantastic solutions to very complex calculations (Fermi’s problems<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have written, along with many colleagues, more than 40 high school textbooks and digital materials, with their teaching guides. Scientific and technological education is crucial in the 21st century!<\/strong> If you are a teacher and need some material, do not hesitate to contact me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
