Description

This book explores precisely how mathematics allows us to model and predict the behaviour of physical systems, to an amazing degree of accuracy. One of the oldest explanations for this is that, in some profound way, the structure of the world is mathematical. The ancient Pythagoreans stated that “everything is number”. However, while exploring the Pythagorean method, this book chooses to add a second principle of the universe: the mind. This work defends the proposition that mind and mathematical structure are the grounds of reality.

User’s Reviews

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐This collection of essays comes at you fast and heavy with a lot of great references but the index is completely worthless making it a slog (to near impossible) to find what you are looking for and ruining what would otherwise be a challenging and enjoyable read. 4/5 if it had a workable index.
