I’m reading Category Theory for the Sciences. It’s a wild ride through abstraction connecting the tools and concepts I use daily to the deep mathematical concepts that underlie them and then going a step further to explore the even broader abstractions that unite the representations of the mathematical abstractions behind the concreteness.
The goal:
… category theory is incredibly efficient as a language for experimental design patterns, introducing formality while remaining flexible. It forms a rich and tightly woven conceptual fabric that allows the scientist to maneuver between different perspectives whenever the need arises. Once she weaves that fabric into her own line of research, she has an ability to think about models in a way that simply would not occur without it.
