| description |
Philosophers have long speculated that a link exists between natural numbers and the physical world...
Pythagoras:
"...all is number"
John Dalton (1803):
"...Atoms combine in simple numerical ratios..."
Prout’s hypothesis, published anonymously in 1815:
"...the elements are different aggregates of the atoms of primordial hydrogen..."
Alexandre Émile Beguyer de Chancourtois (1862):
"...the properties of the elements are the properties of numbers..."
William Harkins (1921):
"...the ratio Z/(A - Z) never exceeds the value 0.62 in atomic species..."
Within this book, readers with an interest in mathematics, science or natural philosophy will find this expectation addressed... |
