Review

Having taught MYP Mathematics for nine years I have seen many resources. This book is the perfect partner for teaching inquiry based Mathematics. The structure of each chapter will instil confidence on any Mathematics teacher who has a fear of inquiry but also give excellent new ideas to the more confident. The examples are up-to-date and offer a modern take on many uses of Mathematics using relevant Global Contexts. They encourage student initiative and reflection - two key elements to success in any Mathematics classroom. I would recommend this book and author without any hesitation. -- Huw Jones, Geneva, 2018 I vote for your book! This is not just me grovelling to my boss! I really think it is the better book, and one I wish I had written myself. -- Andy R., International School of Hamburg
