Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is a refreshing exploration into the psychology of numbers. Our ancient numerical system, based on the qualities of our own bodies and minds, became the foundation for abstract mathematical thought. Concepts of quantity, time, proportion, and spatial relationships originated by our ancestors influence our understanding of the universe today. This book traces the evolution of our number system, showing how the principles that underlie our most complex mathematical theories were first discovered.
