Description
Numbers penetrate every aspect of our lives. Very few things can we accomplish without the basic ability to count with simple whole numbers, which we all consider self-evident. The beautifully illustrated book Sacred Numbers presents basic numerical systems and significant numbers from major religious texts. It clarifies the connection between astronomy, geometry, and music with numerical values and how numbers influence architecture. The author explains why Pythagorean ideas are still alive and provides portraits of numbers from one to twelve, clarifying their specific properties. For example, why life is associated with five and circles with eleven.
