This is nonsense. The phrase "Anglo-Saxon math" is a wholly-invented fantasy of Arthur Hu.

I don't understand what the criticism of Saxon math for lacking creativity is. Why would you need creativity for high school mathematics textbooks. NikolaiLobachevsky 20:59:28 1/25/2007 (UTC)

I'm changing the introduction- speciffically the part which introduces how the program works, because I know from firsthand experience that the program changes as the book levels progress.Pickled Cookie 06:04, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

I am a Home schooler and this is my second year with Saxon Math. It has been very interesting. Instead of just stating a thing matter of factly, they cause you to think for yourself. It clearly walks you though the prosses of learning. PS: Niky Saxon Math is very creative, and you need creativity to engage students. Pickled, it's the student that is learning not the teacher! --63.19.197.124 15:38, 1 March 2007 (UTC)Michael Morgan age 12 1 March, 2007
