| Abstract | "An embodied perspective on mathematical thinking, teaching and learning has grown from early theoretical and empirical work in the 90's to a diverse and productive collection of approaches today. The aim of this book is to survey the landscape of these approaches and to provide empirical examples of research and an in-depth analysis of the most influential perspectives on embodiment and mathematics. More particularly, the book clarifies differences and points of contact among several theoretical and methodological frameworks that all take embodiment as a core construct in understanding mathematical thinking, and illustrates in a concrete way the affordances of each of these frameworks Contributors are: Dor Abrahamson, Martha W.
