Introduction
This book intends to open up a discussion on fundamental ideas in didactics of mathematics as a scientific discipline. We want to introduce fundamental ideas as a possible answer to the diversity of theories in the field. Instead of providing a solely theoretical contribution, we suggest entering into this discussion by focusing on the “idea of transformation” that we regard as being fundamental to didactics of mathematics. Transformation is a matter of interest in many areas of didactics of mathematics conceived of as “the sum of scientific activities to describe, analyze an
