Note that the Floris Books editions of Jamie York's books have been
completely revised for UK and European notation, language and
metric systems. They are also suitable for use in South Africa,
Australia and New Zealand. Experienced maths teacher and consultant
Jamie York believes that a love of learning comes through the
teacher, so his books are committed to supporting teachers in
developing their classroom skills and to fostering a love of maths
in their students. Unlike conventional maths textbooks, his books
are not full of fancy graphics and contrived ways to make maths
fun. Rather, they: -- focus on the essentials, so teachers aren't
overwhelmed by endless lists of required material -- are genuinely
interesting and challenging, sparking students' enthusiasm for
learning maths -- are developmentally appropriate to the age of the
child, thereby encouraging inner mathemetical awareness and
thinking -- favour depth over superficiality, to avoid teaching
