machiavellian math
the unethical practices by family-owned publishers of singapore math t-tles to rob their authors, such as understating the number of copies sold; preparing a royalty statement with b-gus figures; paying zero royalties for sale of translation rights or copyrights at book fairs; and covertly replacing textbook authors’ names by foreign names from developing countries.
to prevent local schools from switching to other textbook publishers, starpee publishing resorts to machiavellian math, by giving away thousands of free textbooks to them, which is disguised as a donation to needy students, or by bundling their textbooks with free supplementary t-tles written by other authors, thus depriving both the textbook and supplementary t-tle authors of royalties.
