Review for the original edition: ‘Walkerdine displays a splendid ability to make innovative interpretations of the ways children struggle to learn mathematics … At their most successful, her arguments may intelligently divert educators from their math warpath and suggest some new directions. In so doing Walkerdine is protecting children from what we, as she so observantly states, ‘subject’ them to. She is a math advocate not only for children, but also for adults who still strive to understand why mathematics can inflict such terror and pain.’ – C. Bluhm, Human Development
