What is the relationship between modern mathematics - more precisely computational mathematics - and mathematical education? It is this controversal topic that the authors address with an in-depth analysis. In fact, what they present in an extremely well-reasoned account of the development of mathematics and its culture giving concrete recommendation for a much-needed reform of the teaching of mathematics. The book is essential reading for everybody involved in mathematics and science, and mathematics teaching.
