Martin Gardner

Science and Teacher who has taught how to love math
and science.
I've been thrilled to read his books and grasp his
wisdom since my very young ages. And I'm indebted to Martin
Gardner for every moments I knew him, for his friendly
and wise advices, and for opening to me thousands of ways to
the Puzzle Universe.
