Upcoming Release: The Math of Meaning

For generations, meaning has been treated as a feeling, nothing more. Personal, unstable, and private.

The Math of Meaning begins from a different discovery: meaning is structural. It forms and stabilizes according to measurable forces that govern every human system.

Drawing on Meaning System Science, the book shows that meaning behaves as a multi-variable system shaped by semantic truth, signal behavior, structural coherence, thermodynamic drift, and affective regulation. When proportion is kept, systems evolve with coherence. When it isn’t, the same information produces different interpretations and coordinated direction becomes impossible to sustain.

This shift turns an age old question into a scientific one: What happens to the meaning of life when meaning itself can be measured?

The Math of Meaning reveals why coherence has become scarce in modern institutions, and why drift now rises even inside environments that appear stable until pressure exposes their limits.

Meaning is not a feeling we pursue.
It is a structure we can finally understand,
and therefore a structure we can finally protect.
