Semiotics in mathematics education : : epistemology, history, classroom, and culture / / Luis Radford, Gert Schubring, Falk Seeger.

Current interest in semiotics is undoubtedly related to our increasing awareness that our manners of thinking and acting in our world are deeply indebted to a variety of signs and sign systems (language included) that surround us. Since mathematics is something that we accomplish through written, or...
