This book is a compilation of writings, many previously unpublished, by Jean-Roger Vergnaud from 2001 to 2010, in collaboration with colleagues and students. This work is guided by the scientific belief that broader mathematical principles should guide linguistic inquiry, as they guide biology and physics.
