Title: An exercise in vocabulary
Product review: I used BJUP books for many years.I have found them to be very well written as far as the actual subject instruction goes, especially in the math and science texts. I do find it disturbing that in the math books they change so abruptly from the mathematical use of vocabulary to a specific religious use. Both are legitimate uses of the words; the student should be able to recognize and (by upper levels) understand what the similarities are in the usages. Truthfully, most students are more likely to need the non-mathematical usage in everyday life later on. But it does sound contrived. Perhaps it would be less so if it were labeled clearly as "Across the curriculum" or "Language Link" or something like that, as other textbooks sometimes do.
