This book explores alternative ways to consider the relationship
between mathematics and the material world. Drawing on the
philosophy of Gilles Chatelet and the post-humanist materialism of
Karen Barad, the authors present an 'inclusive materialist'
approach to studying mathematics education. This approach offers a
fresh perspective on human and nonhuman bodies, challenging current
assumptions about the role of the senses, language, and ability in
teaching and learning mathematics. Each chapter provides empirical
examples from the classroom that demonstrate how inclusive
materialism can be applied to a wide range of concerns in the
field. The authors analyze recent studies on students' gestures,
expressions, and drawings in order to establish a link between
mathematical activity and mathematical concepts. Mathematics and
the Body expands the landscape of research in mathematics education
and will be an essential resource for teachers, students, and
researchers alike.
