Alexander Unzicker is a theoretical physicist and writes about elementary questions of natural philosophy. His critique of contemporary physics Bankrupting Physics (Macmillan) received the ‘Science Book of the Year’ award (German edition 2010). With The Mathematical Reality, Unzicker presents his most fundamental work to date, which is the result of years of study of natural laws and their historical development.The discovery of fundamental laws of nature has influenced the fate of Homo sapiens more than anything else. Has modern physics already understood these laws? Many puzzles ...

Before Omar Khayyam became the legendary poet of wine, fate, and mortality, he was one of the great mathematical minds of the medieval world. Known today mainly through the haunting verses of the Rubaiyat, Omar Khayyam was far more than a poet beneath a Persian sky. He was a philosopher, astronomer, geometer, and one of the most important algebraists of the Islamic Golden Age. In Omar Khayyam and the Mathematics of the Infinite, Clayton Louis Turnage explores the hidden intellectual life of the man behind the legend — the scholar who classified cubic equations, solved them through the ...

Discover the timeless wisdom of one of history’s most extraordinary thinkers. The Harmony of Numbers: Exploring the Profound Philosophy and Mathematics of Pythagoras invites readers into the mind of a philosopher who saw beauty, truth, and order in everything. Long before modern science, Pythagoras taught that the universe itself was built upon mathematical harmony. His ideas shaped geometry, inspired Plato, influenced the rise of Western philosophy, and helped lay the groundwork for astronomy, music theory, and the very concept of scientific law. In this richly written exploration, The ...

Foundations of Form: Understanding the Enduring Ideas of Euclid and the Birth of Geometry explores how one ancient thinker transformed human understanding of logic, structure, and truth. More than two thousand years ago, Euclid of Alexandria wrote The Elements, a work that shaped the course of mathematics, science, and philosophy for all time. His clear reasoning and geometric method taught the world that knowledge could be built from simple principles through the power of logic alone. This in-depth volume from The Practical Atlas traces Euclid’s life, his groundbreaking system of axioms ...

The Freakonomics of math—a math-world superstar unveils the hidden beauty and logic of the world and puts its power in our hands The math we learn in school can seem like a dull set of rules, laid down by the ancients and not to be questioned. In How Not to Be Wrong, Jordan Ellenberg shows us...

From a single point, an entire geometry unfolds. The Flower of Life: The Hidden Architecture of the Ancient World examines one of history’s most enduring geometric patterns with clarity, restraint, and precision. Often surrounded by speculation, the Flower of Life is here approached as geometry first: a structure generated from the repeated placement of a single radius. From that simple constraint emerges equilateral symmetry, hexagonal order, and the underlying framework of the Platonic solids. This book traces the pattern through three distinct lenses: • Structure — A clear, step-by...
