The first issue of the Bulletin of the International Commission on Mathematical Instruction appeared in October 1972. ICMI President James Lighthill then presented the decision of Executive Committee of ICMI of establishing this means of communication as a response, following ICME-2 held that year in Exeter, to the "strongly felt demand for wide international discussion of all aspects of mathematical education". The ICMI Bulletin was thus seen as a means of "increasing the spread of information concerning activities of ICMI and other matters of interest to mathematical educators".
The ICMI Bulletin was at times published somewhat erratically, but it has appeared on a regular basis starting with issue No. 13 (February 1983) and more precisely twice a year (June and December) since issue No. 16 (June 1984). The rôle of the ICMI Bulletin is complementary to that of the official organ of ICMI, L'Enseignement mathématique. While it does contain some formal information about ICMI (vg annual or quadrennial reports), its main purpose is to provide information related to various aspects of the life of ICMI (announcements of activities, information about Affiliated Study Groups, etc.) as well as to general mathematics education issues as seen from an international perspective. Hence past issues of the Bulletin can be seen as a useful source of information on the history of ICMI itself and on aspects of the evolution of international trends in mathematics education. It was thus felt appropriate to make available in a single place the contents of past issues of the ICMI Bulletin.
The previous issue of this Bulletin (No. 46, June 1999, pp. 42-49)
lists the table of contents of the sixteen issues of the ICMI Bulletin
published under the editorship of Mogens Niss (Nos. 30-45, 1991-1998).
The table of contents of issues Nos. 1-29 appear below.
These issues were respectively published under the following editors:
| 1 - 4 | (1972-1974) | Edwin A. Maxwell |
| 5 - 11 | (1975-1978) | Yukiyoshi Kawada |
| 12 | (1981) | Peter J. Hilton |
| 13 - 29 | (1983-1990) | Keith E. Hirst and A. Geoffrey Howson |
Readers interested in papers appearing in these issues of the Bulletin should contact me (see my address on page 1 of this Bulletin).
I would like to take this opportunity to thank David Wheeler, who handed
me his almost complete collection of ICMI Bulletins when I
succeeded him as the Canadian Representative to ICMI in 1996, and Gert
Schubring, who helped me fill the few holes thanks to the
remarkable collection of the library at the Institut für Didaktik
der Mathematik of Universität Bielefeld.
