Choose 1 or 2 Chapters in Ian Stewart’s “Nature’s Numbers” and write a synthesis essay.

Chapter 1: The natural order

What is truly the natural order? Is it the regularity of the connection of numbers to the

overall physicality of beings or the overall connection of numbers to the world itself? In Ian

Stewarts’ Nature’s Numbers he procured with the understanding that everything in this world has

a connection to mathematics or numbers based on the findings of such various figures in terms of

the field of mathematics particularly Johannes Kepler. It is said that every pattern has a

mathematical explanation to it pertaining to a sequential order to it stating that nature really has a

natural order of mathematics to it. Mathematicians can deduce the atomic geometry of an

organism even if it is as small as an atom, and by deducing meaning that every little thing in this

expanding universe has a mathematical or numerical order or numerical explanation to why is it

that or how it really is. In the text is says that the simplest mathematical objects are numbers, and

the simplest of nature’s patterns are numerical. In terms of sequence of patterns it is

mathematical and can be determined in numerical coding but it cannot be always be right,

biology is also intact meaning that there are some factors that can affect it sequentially.

Coincidentally there is a method about finding patterns, it is called Numerology. Numerology is

any belief in the divine or mystical relationship between a number and one or more coinciding

events. It is also the study of the numerical value of the letters in words, names, and ideas. It is

often associated with the paranormal, alongside astrology and similar divinatory arts. In

layman’s terms it is about the study of patterns associated with nature itself. The difficulty lies in

distinguishing significant numerical patterns from accidental ones. Here's a case in point. Kepler
was fascinated with mathematical patterns in nature, and he devoted much of his life to looking

for them in the behavior of the planets. He devised a simple and tidy theory for the existence of

precisely six planets (in his time only Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn were

known). He presented that theory because of the mathematically of its behavior but later that

theory was shut down. Famous mathematician Benoit Mandelbrot stated that fractals are the

science of irregularities or Fractal geometry as to it pertaining to some of the irregularity of

patterns in this universe. Fortunately for us new theories and newfound understanding helps us in

understanding the nature’s patterns and irregularities and for that we are due to improve the

technology and the basis of the quality of life just because we understand the numeral physicality

of nature. Overall it gives us the better vision of why the universe is the way it is or why is that

way, Nature’s Numbers are really the Natural order and mathematical explanation is always the

logical way to understand the universe itself. Lastly Chapter one of this text gave us the

introduction of how the world works through the eyes or understandings of numbers within it

also it or the whole universe being in 1 spectrum of numbers itself.
