In France and for the first time, new curriculum of Lycées (students 15-18 years old) contain history of mathematics explicitly, for each part of the curriculum and with precise historical references of mathematicians and themes.

The textbook Faire des mathématiques avec l’histoire au Lycée is intended for teachers of mathematics in secondary teaching. It is not a classical “history of mathematics” but a textbook that supplies tracks to integrate history in teaching. It gives texts to do mathematics with those who thought, invented or improved them to answer to questions or to solve problems.

The textbook gathers 80 episodes arranged in five parts: numbers and calculations, magnitudes and figures, unknown and equations, curves and functions, chances and laws.
