Uncountable by David Nirenberg,Ricardo L. Nirenberg Pdf
Ranging from math to literature to philosophy, Uncountable explains how numbers triumphed as the basis of knowledge—and compromise our sense of humanity. Our knowledge of mathematics has structured much of what we think we know about ourselves as individuals and communities, shaping our psychologies, sociologies, and economies. In pursuit of a more predictable and more controllable cosmos, we have extended mathematical insights and methods to more and more aspects of the world. Today those powers are greater than ever, as computation is applied to virtually every aspect of human activity. Yet, in the process, are we losing sight of the human? When we apply mathematics so broadly, what do we gain and what do we lose, and at what risk to humanity? These are the questions that David and Ricardo L. Nirenberg ask in Uncountable, a provocative account of how numerical relations became the cornerstone of human claims to knowledge, truth, and certainty. There is a limit to these number-based claims, they argue, which they set out to explore. The Nirenbergs, father and son, bring together their backgrounds in math, history, literature, religion, and philosophy, interweaving scientific experiments with readings of poems, setting crises in mathematics alongside world wars, and putting medieval Muslim and Buddhist philosophers in conversation with Einstein, Schrödinger, and other giants of modern physics. The result is a powerful lesson in what counts as knowledge and its deepest implications for how we live our lives.
A master of vibrations and numerology, Balliett successfully achieves her mission of explaining the mysteries that lay just beneath our everyday plane of existence. The author takes deliberate care in explaining how the frequency of different vibrations affect almost everything around us and how we can either blindly submit to these vibrations or actually tune in to them and hence calibrate our own vibrational attunement to a higher and more spiritual level. Mrs. L. Dow Balliett, was born March 1, 1847 as Sarah Joanna Dennis, to Quaker parents on the East Coast of the United States. In Atlantic City, Mrs. Dow held numerous leadership roles in countless civic, cultural and musical organizations, leaving her mark in history. She is best known to modern numerologists as the founder of the Master Number system, whereby the numbers 11 and 22 are not reduced. She combined Pythagoras' work with Biblical reference. She and her female student, Juno Jordan, of the California Institute of Numerical Research, founded, proved, and helped numerology become the system known today as Pythagorean. "A fascinating and informative book showing that numbers are spiritually connected to everything. This is a must read for all students of esoterica and occult practices." -- Dr. Israel Regardie
The Social Life of Numbers by Gary Urton,Primitivo Nina Llanos Pdf
Unraveling all the mysteries of the khipu--the knotted string device used by the Inka to record both statistical data and narrative accounts of myths, histories, and genealogies--will require an understanding of how number values and relations may have been used to encode information on social, familial, and political relationships and structures. This is the problem Gary Urton tackles in his pathfinding study of the origin, meaning, and significance of numbers and the philosophical principles underlying the practice of arithmetic among Quechua-speaking peoples of the Andes. Based on fieldwork in communities around Sucre, in south-central Bolivia, Urton argues that the origin and meaning of numbers were and are conceived of by Quechua-speaking peoples in ways similar to their ideas about, and formulations of, gender, age, and social relations. He also demonstrates that their practice of arithmetic is based on a well-articulated body of philosophical principles and values that reflects a continuous attempt to maintain balance, harmony, and equilibrium in the material, social, and moral spheres of community life.
The Philosophy of Numbers by Mrs. L. Dow Balliett Pdf
The Philosophy of Numbers: Their Tone and Colors is a book that explores the spiritual use and symbolic nature of numbers written by L. Dow Balliett. The author explains in the preface that she composed this book in response to requests she received across the world from readers who wanted a clearer approach to numerology. In this book, Balliett explores number vibration and her own beliefs on the principle of Unity – the concept that all things have but one source. Balliett's ultimate goal is apparent in the first pages of her text: declaring that each individual struggles with questions like "why am I here?" and "how do I find a place for myself in life?" or "what am I meant to do with my life?", in turn, it's Balliett's intent to utilize numerology, and numbers to explore these vital questions and apply her findings to assist readers in their own personal journeys through life and spirituality. In the book, she explores a variety of religious texts to work as both evidence to support her arguments and as red herrings that she can contradict with her own experiences and beliefs. The book offers a considerable amount of exercises for the reader to explore in their own study of numerology and symbolism. The Philosophy of Numbers: Their Tone and Colors is a spiritual guide book that offers a considerable amount of information and practice in numerology. L. Dow Balliett shares her own experiences and beliefs in depth in this complex yet approachable book. This is an interesting read for individuals intrigued by numerology, spirituality, and those looking for personal guidance in life.

Lectures on the Philosophy of Mathematics by Joel David Hamkins Pdf
An introduction to the philosophy of mathematics grounded in mathematics and motivated by mathematical inquiry and practice. In this book, Joel David Hamkins offers an introduction to the philosophy of mathematics that is grounded in mathematics and motivated by mathematical inquiry and practice. He treats philosophical issues as they arise organically in mathematics, discussing such topics as platonism, realism, logicism, structuralism, formalism, infinity, and intuitionism in mathematical contexts. He organizes the book by mathematical themes--numbers, rigor, geometry, proof, computability, incompleteness, and set theory--that give rise again and again to philosophical considerations.
Introduction to Mathematical Philosophy by Bertrand Russell Pdf
In the words of Bertrand Russell, "Because language is misleading, as well as because it is diffuse and inexact when applied to logic (for which it was never intended), logical symbolism is absolutely necessary to any exact or thorough treatment of mathematical philosophy." That assertion underlies this book, a seminal work in the field for more than 70 years. In it, Russell offers a nontechnical, undogmatic account of his philosophical criticism as it relates to arithmetic and logic. Rather than an exhaustive treatment, however, the influential philosopher and mathematician focuses on certain issues of mathematical logic that, to his mind, invalidated much traditional and contemporary philosophy. In dealing with such topics as number, order, relations, limits and continuity, propositional functions, descriptions, and classes, Russell writes in a clear, accessible manner, requiring neither a knowledge of mathematics nor an aptitude for mathematical symbolism. The result is a thought-provoking excursion into the fascinating realm where mathematics and philosophy meet — a philosophical classic that will be welcomed by any thinking person interested in this crucial area of modern thought.
The Real Jouissance of Uncountable Numbers by Raul Moncayo,Magdalena Romanowicz Pdf
Lacan critiqued imaginary intuition for confusing direct perception with unconscious pre-conceptions about people and the world. The emphasis on description goes hand in hand with a rejection of theory and the science of the unconscious and a belief in the naive self-transparency of the world. At the same time, knowing in and of the Real requires a place beyond thinking, multi-valued forms of logic, mathematical equations, and different conceptions of causality, acausality, and chance. This book explores some of the mathematical problems raised by Lacan's use of numbers and the interconnection between mathematics and psychoanalytic ideas. Within any system, mathematical or otherwise, there are holes, or acausal cores and remainders of indecidability. It is this senseless point of non-knowledge that makes change, and the emergence of the new, possible within a system. This book differentiates between two types of void, and aligns them with the Lacanian concepts of a true and a false hole and the psychoanalytic theory of primary repression.
The Philosophy of Numbers by Mrs L Dow Balliett Pdf
A review from The Phrenological Journal and Science of Health, Volume 121: THIS book has been written in response to the requests of those who are interested in the study of number vibrations. The requests have come from all parts of the world, asking for more of the simplified knowledge founded upon the one principle of unity, - that all things have but one source-and express in different forms the unity of the whole. The hidden strength or weakness of names, states, etc., as shown by the vowels, have been evolved through the philosophy of numbers. From this source many unwritten laws can be made plain. Pythagoras said: "The heavens and earth vibrate to the single numbers, or digits of numbers. Each single number, from 1 to 9, are digits. To find your own numbers, divide the alphabet into nine parts. To get a scientific cause for the expression of life, and to understand what has been taught us by Pythagoras, Plato, Aristotle, and Socrates, we must realize that these philosophers were mystics. A mystic at that time, as at present, believed in the Oneness of All, that everything came from one source, that every separate thing was entirely dependent upon every other separate thing, yet all the separate things were joined in the Great Universal Chain of Infinite Lives. As many persons want to know how the vibration of numbers can be understood and used, we would recommend this book, and "The Ancient Science of Numbers," to such enquirers. Chapter XXIII explains the vibrations of numbers to States, and it is rather interesting, after having found one's own name vibration, to know what States will harmonize with such vibration, so that a person can make a successful selection of locality to live in. It is an interesting book of 168 pages, and no doubt will receive a hearty reception.
A fascinating explanation of the significant, often symbolic role that numbers play in yoga philosophy—by beloved yoga teacher and writer Richard Rosen. Numbers play a meaningful role in the philosophy of many spiritual traditions—and yoga is no exception. For example, the number one is the quintessential yoga number, representing “unity” and “wholeness”; number two sometimes stands for co-operative effort, and other times for conflict; and number four is the number of completeness or stability, as it “stands” on “four legs.” There are twelve different names for the mantra OM, each one revealing a different aspect of this root sound. With his distinctive blend of knowledge and humor, Richard Rosen unpacks the fascinating significance that numbers hold in the philosophy and practice of yoga. Stories and practices woven throughout—like the Eka Danta simple meditation exercise, which concentrates on "one pointedness" and is associated with the one tusk of Ganesh—offer readers a hands-on way to explore the importance of numbers in their own practice. Yoga by the Numbers will enlighten and entertain the yogi in your life.
