Math Experts Wrong?

Phyllis Schlafley's take on the change to New Math:
Parents Right; Math Experts Wrong.

It took parents 17 years to overturn the tragic 1989 curriculum mistake made by the so-called education experts who demanded that schools abandon traditional mathematics in favor of unproven approaches. The National Council of Teachers of Mathematics finally reversed course on September 12 and admitted that elementary schools really should teach arithmetic, after all.
