It is no coincidence that the most controversial areas of mathematics
are also involved in many of the unexplained problems in physics.
As our understanding of mathematics and physics has advanced,
it has exposed deficiencies in our theories about numbers and basic mathematics.

Much of what we learn about the number zero in school is wrong.
It is based on opinion and philosophy dating back many centuries, rather than
being based on the way that the Universe actually does things.
We look at the impact this confusion about zero has had on mathematics,
geometry and physics.
 
This is a tale of three different types of zeros, a misunderstanding and the impact
it has had on Western mathematics and physics. It is one of the strangest tales
in the history of mathematics and science.
