Mathematics and Science education have both grown in fertile
directions in different geographic regions. Yet, the mainstream
discourse in international handbooks does not lend voice to
developments in cognition, curriculum, teacher development,
assessment, policy and implementation of mathematics and science in
many countries. Paradoxically, in spite of advances in information
technology and the "flat earth" syndrome, old distinctions and
biases between different groups of researcher's persist. In
addition limited accessibility to conferences and journals also
contribute to this problem. The International Sourcebooks in
Mathematics and Science Education focus on under-represented
regions of the world and provides a platform for researchers to
showcase their research and development in areas within mathematics
and science education. The First Sourcebook on Asian Research in
Mathematics Education: China, Korea, Singapore, Japan, Malaysia and
India provides the first synthesized treatment of mathematics
education that has both developed and is now prominently emerging
in the Asian and South Asian world. The book is organized in
sections coordinated by leaders in mathematics education in these
countries and editorial teams for each country affiliated with
them. The purpose of unique sourcebook is to both consolidate and
survey the established body of research in these countries with
findings that have influenced ongoing research agendas and informed
practices in Europe, North America (and other countries) in
addition to serving as a platform to showcase existing research
that has shaped teacher education, curricula and policy in these
Asian countries. The book will serve as a standard reference for
mathematics education researchers, policy makers, practitioners and
students both in and outside Asia, and complement the Nordic and
NCTM perspectives.

A Genesis Found: The Film Companion is the literary counterpart of
the 2010 DIY Independent Feature Film, A Genesis Found, which is
currently touring the Southeast Featuring the film's shooting
screenplay, an anecdotal essay, an interview with the film's
producers, and a full length novelization of the film's story (by
mystery writer Wilson Toney), this companion digs deeper into the
world of A Genesis Found, and highlights the unique grassroots
approach behind its production and distribution. In 1938, CCC cadet
John Patton Jr. found the key to our darkest secret-an anomalous
skeleton neither animal nor man. Uncertain of its implications,
Patton hid the discovery away from the world-though never
forgetting what he found. Seventy years later, his grandson Gardner
is forced to come to terms with his grandfather's past, a man he
never knew but in whose footsteps he inevitably follows. When his
cousin, controversial documentarian Bart Thompson, arrives for a
seemingly routine shoot, Gardner is eager to lend a hand. He soon
learns, however, that Bart isn't back just to shoot a movie-he
wants to find the "discovery" their grandfather buried nearly
seventy years before, and prove what he claimed was true. As his
skepticism fades, and the lure of mystery grows, Gardner becomes
distant from his foundations, including his live-in girlfriend
Kelsey. Losing himself to the adventure, Gardner is hypnotized by a
single possibility-that this "discovery" could be a direct link to
God. Split into separate halves, A Genesis Found: The Film
Companion is really two books in one-- A Genesis Found: The
Novelization, and Buried in the Mounds. The two halves, together in
vintage flip-book fashion, combine for a complete, unique package
commemorating the DIY ethos, and the clandestine revelations of A
Genesis Found
