I had her for a class a few years ago, and like Coward, she was an excellent teacher who didn&#x27;t care for the norms of the department. 
She was actually working on a new textbook at the time which was all about teaching the fundamentals of mathematics in a completely different way to give a better foundation for higher level mathematics. At the time, she had just taken a small group of non-STEM majors, and using her book, got them to graduate level math in just 1.5 years. 
Sadly I haven&#x27;t seen the book released, but one can only hope the work of these talented individuals will not be hindered by silly politics.
