Synopsis "Rolling It in Glitter: Arithmetic with Attitude"

Are you sick of politicians who rubbish children's efforts and arithmetic ability, but can't even get their own expenses right? You know the sort of things they moan, "3/4 of school-leavers are illiterate ... and the other 30% can't count!" Are you really happy with those who tell you that teaching and learning arithmetic is child's play? Well, if - like native Americans - you still have some reservations then Rolling It In Glitter is for you. It offers a change of perspective, bringing a touch of razzle-dazzle to this easy'' subject, which many nevertheless find difficult. It shows quick digital calculations (on your hands), rapid mental maths, and intriguing methods like the railway service which draws out products, without using multiplication! It also has attitude, arguing that the estimation of reasonable outcomes is essential in arithmetic - and vital in general. (Estimate: Was overthrowing Saddam/Gaddaffi more likely to produce (a) stability and global security, or (b) wealth for arms manufacturers and money-lenders?) This book is for all those facing the challenge of living & learning in the digital age: young learners, teachers (currently enjoying as much kudos as a dyspraxic flame juggler in a hay loft), concerned adults, and the just-curious. Treat it like those glossy ads which say, "Try it... because you're worth it!"
