Perhaps society doesn\u2019t consider me illiterate either, since I was invited as a delegate to two International Scientific Conferences as well as to other local events. I have served as a keynote speaker at many ceremonies and anniversary events and have appeared on television and radio broadcasts. Each time I gave a speech, I did not limit myself to my personal knowledge but delved into encyclopedias and books related to the subject, gathering a wealth of knowledge. I then thought to collect most of my speeches and turn them into a book. It pleases me to think that my children and grandchildren will read it. And that my grandchildren will also learn some things about me, and from me, through this book.<\/p>\n\t\t\n<style>\n#text-2260213450 {\n  text-align: left;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t<div id=\"gap-458738391\" class=\"gap-element clearfix\" style=\"display:block; height:auto;\">\n\t\t\n<style>\n#gap-458738391 {\n  padding-top: 30px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\n<a href=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/\u039f\u039c\u0399\u039b\u0399\u0395\u03a3.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"button primary box-shadow-2 lowercase\" rel=\"noopener\"  style=\"padding:6px 30px 6px 30px;\">\n\t<i class=\"icon-angle-right\" aria-hidden=\"true\" ><\/i>\t<span>Read the book<\/span>\n\t<\/a>\n\n\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n<style>\n#col-1564163231 > .col-inner {\n  padding: 0px 1% 0px 1%;\n}\n@media (min-width:550px) {\n  #col-1564163231 > .col-inner {\n    padding: 0px 2% 0px 2%;\n  }\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n<style>\n#section_39596968 {\n  padding-top: 5px;\n  padding-bottom: 5px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/section>\n\t\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Despite lacking formal degrees and studies, because I am very well-read and had an excellent memory, absorbing everything I read, I do not consider myself illiterate.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2931,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[134],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2336","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-books"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kanakisgeronymakis.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2336","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kanakisgeronymakis.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kanakisgeronymakis.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kanakisgeronymakis.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kanakisgeronymakis.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2336"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/kanakisgeronymakis.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2336\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4009,"href":"https:\/\/kanakisgeronymakis.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2336\/revisions\/4009"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kanakisgeronymakis.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2931"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kanakisgeronymakis.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2336"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kanakisgeronymakis.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2336"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kanakisgeronymakis.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2336"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
