No longer only the language of science, mathematics is now essential to business, finance, health, and defense. Yet because of the lack of mathematical literacy, many students are not prepared for tomorrow's jobs. Everybody Counts suggests solutions. Written for everyone concerned about our children's education, this book discusses why students in this country do not perform well in mathematics and outlines a comprehensive plan for revitalizing mathematics education in America, from kindergarten through college. single copy, $8.95; 2-9 copies, $7.50 each; 10 or more copies, $6.95 each (no other discounts apply) 606 $aMathematics$xStudy and teaching$zUnited States 606 $aMathematical readiness 615 0$aMathematics$xStudy and teaching 615 0$aMathematical readiness. 676 $a510/.7/1073 712 02$aCommittee on the Mathematical Sciences in the Year 2000. 712 02$aNational Research Council (U.S.).$bMathematical Sciences Education Board. 712 02$aNational Research Council (U.S.).$bBoard on Mathematical Sciences. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910973282003321 996 $aEverybody counts$94352170 997 $aUNINA
