This book endeavours to teach arithmetic to the young through a radical approach that combines oral exercises and written problems. The author believes that these methods, developed by some of the finest educators of their time, are superior to the traditional rote memorisation methods. Their approach is based on the idea that children should first understand the concepts behind arithmetic operations before they attempt to memorise multiplication tables and the like. In this book, the author accomplishes this through the use of addition and subtraction to derive multiplication and division tables, presenting these operations as inverse processes rather than isolated concepts. The book does not contain visuals, instead opting to place an emphasis on thorough drill and practice. The end result is a book that will lead both students and teachers to a deeper understanding of arithmetic.
