The specificity of traditional science in China is connected with the formation of “the teaching about symbols and numerals” – numerology. It took the place close to West-European logic of world outlook and methodological basis for the most wide range of philosophical and scientific disciplines, including such to the full respectable ones, as mathematics, astronomy, medicine, and now recognized quasi- or parascientific subjects like alchemy and astrology. The basis of Chinese numerology resembling Pythagoraeanism, consists of mathematic or mathematiclike, numerical and geometrized structures interconnected mainly not by mathematic laws, but symbolically, by associations, de facto, etc. The authors consider in detail the formation of numerology and protologic in China as well as major stages of mathematics development including calculating means and mathematical apparatus. The first three parts of Book 1 (“Specificity of traditional Chinese science”, “Protologic”, and “Numerology”) are written by A.I. Kobzev. The 4th (and last) part (“Mathematics”) is accomplished by V.E. Eremeev (1953 – 2011). The work is focused on students, postgraduates, lecturers of natural-scientific and humanitarian institutes and also for all those who are interested in the history of science and Chinese culture.
