Imagination, Mathematics, and Mysticism

This concluding chapter takes us on a journey from poetry to mysticism. It opens by showing how four ancient forms of interpretation can be used to exercise imagination. It then goes on to show how complex numbers added another possible type of number to algebra and explains how this may help us deal with a Kushiya arising from Boole’s fundamental law of thought. The chapter concludes by reflecting on the intersection of mind, mathematics, and mysticism.
