Part I. From Intuitive Geometry Toward Modern Mathematics: Call for Educational Reform in the Aftermath of World War II -- Chapter 1. Reform Pedagogy and the Introduction of Intuitive Geometry in Secondary School Mathematics -- Chapter 2. Revival of International Collaboration in Mathematics Education During the 1950s -- Chapter 3. Search for National Identity: Willy Servais and the Belgian Society of Mathematics Teachers -- Chapter 4. From Royaumont to Athens: Belgian Reformers on the International Scene -- Part II. The Modern Mathematics Era -- Chapter 5. Preparing for the Introduction of Modern Mathematics into the Classroom: Experimentation and Teacher Training -- Chapter 6. Mathematique Moderne: A Pioneering Belgian Textbook Series Shaping the Modern Mathematics Reform of the 1960s -- Chapter 7. Modern Mathematics in Belgian Secondary and Primary Education: Between Radicalism and Pragmatism -- Part III. In Search of a New Balance -- Chapter 8. From Critique to Math War: A Divided Community of Belgian Mathematics Teachers -- Chapter 9. The Fall of Modern Mathematics in Flanders: From Structuralism to Eclecticism -- Chapter 10. A Joint Action to Reshape Mathematics Education in the French Community of Belgium.

For anyone interested in the history and effects of the introduction of so-called "Modern Mathematics" (or "Mathematique Moderne," or "New Mathematics," etc.) this book, by Dirk De Bock and Geert Vanpaemel, is essential reading. The two authors are experienced and highly qualified Belgian scholars and the book looks carefully at events relating to school mathematics for the period from the end of World War II to 2010. Initially the book focuses on events which helped to define the modern mathematics revolution in Belgium before and during the 1960s. The book does much more than that, however, for it traces the influence of these events on national and international debates during the early phases of the reform. By providing readers with translations into English of relevant sections of key Continental documents outlining the major ideas of leading Continental scholars who contributed to the "Mathematique Moderne" movement, this book makes available to a wide readership, the theoretical, social, and political backdrops of Continental new mathematics reforms. In particular, the book focuses on the contributions made by Belgians such as Paul Libois, Willy Servais, Frederique Lenger, and Georges Papy. The influence of modern mathematics fell away rapidly in the 1970s, however, and the authors trace the rise and fall, from that time into the 21st century, of a number of other approaches to school mathematics-in Belgium, in other Western European nations, and in North America. In summary, this is an outstanding, landmark publication displaying the fruits of deep scholarship and careful research based on extensive analyses of primary sources.
