“The book Eastern European Mathematics Education in the Decades of Change (Karp, 2020) is absolutely packed full of information. Developments are given in detail … . What I most enjoyed, and I think any reader would, is the flowing narrative that identifies similarities and differences and identifies points of potential further research, and, in certain cases, possible future turmoil and, of course, reforms. All of this is presented in a highly erudite, easily readable, rich tapestry … .” (Snezana Lawrence, Educational Studies in Mathematics, Vol. 116 (2), 2024)“Such transparency presents the book as a valuable resource for other communities that strive to improve their educational systems. The volume is vibrant with references to official government documents that further support its high validity. … Another area of research could include the students and their responses to diverse learning methods offered.” (Andrzej Sokolowski, MAA Reviews, December 26, 2021)
