In general Mr Afghan's work is a mix of superstitions and elementary number theory and as such offers no worth to the field of mathematics. In 2012, Afghan was recognized as the "Man of the Year" by the International Biography Center.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Sediq Afghan Man of The Year 2012 )〕 It is a well known fact that International Biographical Centre confers award for a price of between $200-$450. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Biographical_Centre and the award carries absolutely no value whatsoever. The center also authorized Afgan to confer the medal upon other scholars. This has been criticized by many scholars and a BBC report revealed that the so-called "International Biography Center" lacks any academic authorization, and its titles and medals do not have any academic value. He is known for his outspoken criticism of the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, of the secular governments that followed, and of the Taliban regime. In Kabul, he led first anti-U.S. protests during May 2003.〔http://www.khaama.com/philosopher-sediq-afghan-recognized-the-man-of-the-year-21691〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sediq Afghan」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
