Summary:

Patterns, systems, arrangements, however you wish to call it, they are everywhere and we can't help
but to admire them. However, there is always more to the patterns in our nature than meets the eye, ---
--a system. Patterns are not purely coincidental or arbitrary. It is because the universe that we live in has
to have a system.

In this book, the author mainly intended to enlighten the readers about the exceptional nature of
mathematics. At some point you'll be astonished by the realization that the mankind has come so far,
from only admiring patterns to seeking answers as to why they posses certain regularities----through
mathematics. As stated on page 14, "The simplest mathematical objects are numbers, and the simplest
of nature's patterns are numerical", the interpretation that we are acquiring from the quote is that,
mathematics doesn't complicate things through the use of numbers but rather, it seeks to further
understand patterns in our nature.

Speaking of which, you might ask yourself too, why is there a need to understand our nature? What can
we obtain from recognizing the different types of cloud formations, weather, or which star regularly
orbits Saturn? Most importantly, how can we understand nature?

There is another main point we ought to reckon and that is, the relationship between nature and
mathematics is mutual. Mathematics is for explaining the reasoning with the works of the universe and
universe is to giving mathematics its value to the mankind.

The mankind, for the past centuries, have acquired knowledge based-theories that mathematics had
played major roles in. Such as in physics, genetics and going back, to the concept of configurations in
nature. Without mathematics, we could never answer the questions, "How?" and "Why?" that seek to
understand, again, the works of the universe underlying in patterns. Now mathematics as I think of it, it
seems like an ability. Dealing with symbols, numbers, but it's actually more than numbers.
