The secret of the Google, Facebook and Amazon search engines? It’s an algorithm!
From shopping on Amazon to finding a partner on the Internet, a large proportion of the technological progress in our era is due to the application of sophisticated, brilliant tools: algorithms. They manage everything: music, finances, publishing… and will soon also control hospitals and politics. In other words, they have conquered the world! But what are they, actually? Ennio Peres, Italy’s greatest and most authoritative maths populariser, explains it to us in a simple, entertaining and immediate way.
Ennio Peres (1945), a former computer science and maths teacher, calls himself a “gameologist”, a profession he has practised since the Seventies, inventing creative games for, among others, radio and TV programmes. He has worked and still works with various newspapers and magazines, and has received recognition and numerous awards. Over 100,000 copies of his books have been sold.
