THE ENIGMA OF NUMBERS by Lance Storm “In The Enigma of Numbers, Lance Storm challenges our obsession for organising and quantifying our world with an absorbing exposé of the shadow side of quantitynumber as quality. In Storm’s hands, qualitative numbers are mysterious symbols, giving rise to puzzling patterns and uncanny coincidences. His journey takes us from Pythagoras, the ancient Greek mathematician and mystic, through philosophy, arcane religious symbolism and pre-science to the number archetype of the psychologist C G Jung, which grounds this work. Measured and authoritative, yet intriguing and always eminently readable, Storm’s narrative amplifies the archetypal qualities of the numbers 1 to 10 and their manifestations in an assortment of fields—numerology, synchronicity, chaos theory and modern physics. This captivating journey reaches a crescendo in a beguiling stanza on archetypal number in music.
