Hey /lit/, any of you know any books that talk about the relation of math/numbers with pretty much everything (phiolosphy, music, religion, nature, etc..)?

Pi was like some pretentious teenager's student film. I look down on you for liking it.

Don't listen to /lit/, they consider math to be boring and doubt that it contains any deeper truths. The truth is the mathematics is one of the most influential topics on western philosophy ever. Here are my recommendations

>Mathematics: From the Birth of Numbers

>A Mathematician's Apology

>Introduction to Mathematical Philosophy

>Gödel, Escher, Bach

>What Is Mathematics?: An Elementary Approach to Ideas and Methods

>The Road to Reality: A Complete Guide to the Laws of the Universe

Just giving something back to you guys. When listening to this in bed, at night, this makes the world stop for me, and I can't really worry about nothing at all. This is for me all the life is about at the same time that nothing really (should) matter(s) that much in life. Thanks
