MapWise is most welcome and timely as it offers a significant resource to students and teachers.
[...]
MapWise is based on a sophisticated model of cognition, which is firmly rooted in neurological science. Scientific principles are translated into a practical and relevant resource which is directly transferable into classroom practices. The text is lively and engaging, illustrations are clear and helpful and the tone of the book is practical and supportive.--Sanford Lakoff
