About Albert Frank

Author Image

I was born in 1943 somewhere on the dark face of the moon;-)
I studied mathematics (option: physics, general relativity) at the Liège University.
From 1966 to 1994, I was a teacher in Universities in different Central Africa countries, and made several researches. A summary of the main one, made with the help of Dr. Max Euwe, can be seen ("Chess and aptitudes") at users.skynet.be/albert.frank/
I became national chess master of several countries and International chess arbiter.
I was also puzzles creator.
In 1994, I had to escape from Rwanda, when the horror started there. I came back to Belgium and retired in 2003.
I have written about 50 articles, and three books. Among them, NATAN, a book in connection with communication: http://www.lulu.com/content/71060.
My favourite authors: Einstein, Kafka, Stapledon, Hofstadter.
My favourite films: Citizen Kane, Cabaret, Les enfants du paradis.
Particularity: I have no television
My motto:"Everybody does it" is not a reason for doing it.
