A chapter in The Teaching of Geometry at the Pre-College Level, 1971, pp 137-159 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract For many years New Mathematics has meant new subject matter, and this is what it still means in many cases. Where people tried to teach it, it became meaning new teaching techniques. There are few people to which it means a conscious philosophy.
