Więcej o książce
'Rogerson's Book of Numbers' is a deceptively simple list of virtues, spiritual attributes, gods, devils, sacred cities, dominions, powers, heroes, saints and symbols. It provides a dazzling mass of information for those intrigued by the many roles numbers play - not only in mathematics and science, but also in poetry, in the hierarchies of heaven and hell and in the many religions, cultures and belief systems of our world. From the nine choirs of angels and the nine muses to the 12 livery companies of the City of London and the 12 labours of Hercules, discover the numerical bindings which hold our world together - and why exactly 13 is so unlucky.
