Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book provides an innovative framework to understand certain fundamental powers of mathematical form and their connection to the ancient system of philosophy and mythology. The author traces twelve successive steps in one continuous deduction, taking in all the simple or uncompounded powers of mathematical form. These mathematical elements become a basis for understanding the fables belonging to ancient philosophy and poetry, revealing the true purpose of these stories. The author argues that these were not created at random, but intended to express abstract truths, now known in the present day through a more convenient set of symbols. The book's insights demonstrate the severe forms of abstract truth can exist without any accommodation to the feelings of mankind and provides a new perspective on the study of abstract truths, which cannot even now be expressed by a more convenient set of symbols.
