Yes, I'm baffled by that claim, as well. I almost want to read the book only because I assume that the idea is fleshed out quite a bit more than the few sentences that are devoted here. I've always assumed that math works in models because forces between bodies are quantifiable. Mathematics are truth, because they're tautological by nature. That is, all we're doing when we do math is looking for necessary, but unobvious, relationships that must follow from our stated axioms and operators.
