Where Mathematics Come From: How the Embodied Mind Brings Mathematics into Being

I actually took a course at UCSD in the winter taught by Nunez about this topic. Very interesting stuff, and I even added the history section to the Wikipedia page on the number line after I learned several interesting history tidbits from the class + readings.

This is an interesting idea! Perhaps a book review or a blog post would be better recieved than a "buy stuff" oriented link to an online merchant

It's been a while since I read it, but this book was fascinating.
