        Sure thing.

        Hegelian Contradiction and the Prime Numbers is broken into two parts.

        Part 1 attempts to explain the identity/unity/contradiction of Being and Nothing in Hegel's logic by illustrating each aspect and their interactions using mathematical models. IIRC, Wright claims the harmonic oscillations he illustrates corroborate Hegel's conception of Determinate Being.

        Part 2 expounds on the contradictory nature of prime numbers, namely their regular irregularity, and how an analysis of the primes reveals a similar conclusion as to part 1. This is also where he introduces the concept of Hegel Numbers -- that's whereabouts I became confused.
