Book excerpt: The author charts her developing ideas as she undertakes a several-year-long inquiry into an investigative, constructivist approach to mathematics teaching. She presents an account of constructivism as a philosophy of knowledge and learning, provides a rationale for the research methods she employs, and details case studies in the teaching and thinking of three teachers. The research took place in the UK before the introduction of the National Curriculum. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
