Depuydt (Egyptology, Brown U.) has written this textbook on attribute mathematics to show the link between binary thought in digital technologies and the fact that this "other mathematics"
deals with values that do not increase or decrease. Noting that the 21st century will be "that of the brain," the author describes how attribute mathematics can accurately reflect a full
digitization of thoughts and language, making this volume applicable to students and scholars of linguistics, neuroscience, electrical engineering and even philosophy. This book also explores
how genetics and Boolean algebra will eventually have a greater impact on written and spoken thought processes, with the author employing examples of logic and language from both ancient
Egyptian and modern tongues. Annotation 穢2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
