This book uncovers mathematical structures underlying natural
intelligence and applies category theory as a modeling language for
understanding human cognition, giving readers new insights into the
nature of human thought. In this context, the book explores various
topics and questions, such as the human representation of the
number system, why our counting ability is different from that
which is evident among non-human organisms, and why the idea of
zero is so difficult to grasp. The book is organized into three
parts: the first introduces the general reason for studying general
structures underlying the human mind; the second part introduces
category theory as a modeling language and use it for exposing the
deep and fascinating structures underlying human cognition; and the
third applies the general principles and ideas of the first two
parts to reaching a better understanding of challenging aspects of
the human mind such as our understanding of the number system, the
metaphorical nature of our thinking and the logic of our
unconscious dynamics.
