Meaning in Mathematics Education
Springer 2006; US$ 139.99What does it mean to know mathematics? How does meaning in mathematics education connect to common sense or to the meaning of mathematics itself? How are meanings constructed and communicated and what are the dilemmas related to these processes? There are many answers to these questions, some of which might appear to be contradictory. Thus understanding... more...
The Construction of New Mathematical Knowledge in Classroom Interaction
Springer-Verlag New York Inc 2005; US$ 137.00Deals with the specific characteristics of mathematical communication in the classroom. This book offers a presentation and an application of the fundamental research method in mathematics education that establishes a reciprocal relationship between everyday classroom communication and epistemological conditions of mathematical knowledge. more...
Humans-with-Media and the Reorganization of Mathematical Thinking
Springer 2006; US$ 47.99This book offers a new conceptual framework for reflecting on the role of information and communication technology in mathematics education. Discussion focuses on how computers, writing and oral discourse transform education at an epistemological as well as a political level. Building on examples, research and theory, the authors propose that knowledge... more...
Activity and Sign
Springer-Verlag New York Inc 2005; US$ 209.99The advancement of a scientific discipline depends not only on the "big heroes" of a discipline, but also on a community?s ability to reflect on what has been done in the past and what should be done in the future. This volume combines perspectives on both. It celebrates the merits of Michael Otte as one of the most important founding fathers... more...

The Algebra of Secondary Cohomology Operations
Springer 2006; US$ 139.99Computing the algebra of secondary cohomology operations, that enrich the structure of the Steenrod algebra, this book solves a long-standing problem on the algebra of secondary cohomology operations. It develops a different algebraic theory of such operations. The results have an impact on the Adams spectral sequence. more...

Theory of Association Schemes
Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co. KG 2006; US$ 99.99Presents treatment of the structure theory of association schemes. This book presents generalization of Sylow's group theoretic theorems to scheme theory and also the algebraic proof of Tits' theorem on buildings of spherical type. It also includes characterization of Glauberman's, Z-involutions and is aimed at advanced undergraduate students. more...
Handbook of Geometric Topology
Elsevier Science 2001; US$ 295.00Geometric Topology is a foundational component of modern mathematics, involving the study of spacial properties and invariants of familiar objects such as manifolds and complexes. This volume, which is intended both as an introduction to the subject and as a wide ranging resouce for those already grounded in it, consists of 21 expository surveys... more...
