Excerpt from Junior High School Mathematics, Vol. 2 This series of mathematical textbooks marks a new type of mathematics as to aims, purposes, and material. Unbiased by tradition, the author seeks to give the mathematics necessary in order to interpret the quantitative phases of life, met by the aver age intelligent person outside of his specialized vocation. The material, selected with this aim in view, is naturally based upon some social issue. Such a selection of material not only leads to the habit of using the mathematics learned in school, to interpret the quantitative side of everyday life that is met out of school, but it will also greatly increase the interest in the subject a vital factor in the economy of learning. It should be noticed, then, that this series especially emphasizes the interpretative function of mathematics, and seeks to develop both the power to see and. The habit of seeing the quantitative relationships that necessarily arise in topics of general conversa tion and reading.
