[205] By the early 1970s, this movement was defeated. Nevertheless, some of the ideas it promoted still lived on.
The book was intended to help reform mathematics teaching in the UK, and more specifically in the University of Cambridge and in schools preparing to study higher mathematics. It was aimed directly at "scholarship level" students – the top 10% to 20% by ability.
