A fascinating tour of the history of numbers showing that numbers have been filled with mystery and meaning since the earliest times and across every society. This book covers the origins of numbers, the symbolism of numbers, the source of this symbolism, and examines individual numbers from one to ten thousand. Schimmel proves to us that from literature to folklore to superstitions, numbers play a conspicuous and significant role in our lives.
