How Humans Learn to Think Mathematically describes the development
of mathematical thinking from the young child to the sophisticated
adult. Professor David Tall reveals the reasons why mathematical
concepts that make sense in one context may become problematic in
another. For example, a child's experience of whole number
arithmetic successively affects subsequent understanding of
fractions, negative numbers, algebra, and the introduction of
definitions and proof. Tall's explanations for these developments
are accessible to a general audience while encouraging specialists
to relate their areas of expertise to the full range of
mathematical thinking. The book offers a comprehensive framework
for understanding mathematical growth, from practical beginnings
through theoretical developments, to the continuing evolution of
mathematical thinking at the highest level.
