About this listen

What’s in a number? Everything.
From the lonely “one” to the infinite, irrational swirl of π, numbers are more than tools for counting—they’re stories, symbols, and secret codes hidden in plain sight.

In The Secret Life of Numbers, JD Arden peels back the layers of mathematics, myth, superstition, and science to reveal the strange, beautiful, and sometimes absurd truths behind our most familiar figures.

Why is seven so lucky? Why does thirteen haunt our dreams? What’s so terrifying—and liberating—about zero?
With Arden’s signature wit and clarity, this book takes you on a philosophical tour from ancient temples to modern algorithms, showing how numbers shape the way we live, love, and understand the universe.
Sharp, smart, and slyly profound, The Secret Life of Numbers will make you see the world through different eyes—one digit at a time.
