The book makes a valuable contribution to the existing literature in terms of the teaching and learning of algebra. At the same time it is different, in various ways: one of the differences is that it has been co-authored by three authors, rather than edited, which provides the reader with a more coherent reading. - Birgit Pepin, Nieuw Archief voor Wiskunde (Dutch Journal of the Royal Mathematics Society)
