@bosch_annemiek @dkateros @lexfridman This is all connected to Jung's concept of synchronicity. Check out his book "Synchronicity: An Acausal Connecting Principle" in which he talks about both astrology and numbers as archetypes. M.-L. von Franz's book "Numbers and Time" is also illuminating. https://t.co/9Ky5D6QojJ

This quote is actually from a novel by George Eliot (the pen name of Mary Ann Evans), and there are many other good ones in this article, which make it even more fun to read.

A podcast of my conversation with Amir Alexander at @cwclub about his new book PROOF! published by @fsgbooks on how Euclidean geometry shaped art and politics of Modernity and what all of this means for us today, in a world that's very much non-Euclidean https://www.commonwealthclub.org/events/archive/podcast/proof-how-world-became-geometrical https://t.co/jnePXp4B1q

If you wish to read a book about science, look no further than the new biography of GALILEO by @Mario_Livio out today. It makes fascinating links between Galileo's life and the present. Livio is a maestro of this domain: astronomer and bestselling author. https://www.amazon.com/Galileo-Science-Deniers-Mario-Livio/dp/1501194739/ https://t.co/Seu4U7mDba

My friend & mentor Thomas Farber has a new book out, ACTING MY AGE. Like diver on the cover, he jumps into deeper layers of our collective psyche to explore the present moment, full of struggles & pain, but also beauty & love. Distilled wisdom for our age: https://t.co/7h9EsAyeOa https://t.co/83KjQs6gGB
