Emphasizing the importance of incorporating children's diverse out-of-school knowledge, the book advocates for a math education approach that builds on these experiences to reach academic mathematics. It draws on sociocultural learning theories, particularly those of Vygotsky, and highlights ethnographic insights from various cultures to enrich curricula. Additionally, it critiques the predominately Western perspective in OECD analyses and proposals regarding math education, promoting a more inclusive and globally informed framework.
