What is Philosophy East/West (Exploring Intersections between Educational and Contemplative Practices) about?

"Philosophy East/West showcases new scholarship in the philosophy of education and contemplative studies, paying particular attention to the intersection of mindfulness, evidence-based science, and wisdom traditions. Moves beyond simplistic explanations of "Eastern" and "Western" to explore the complexity and diversity of various wisdom traditions; Investigates the effect of mindfulness-based curricular interventions on current educational theory and practice; Uses insights from important Western philosophers-including Heidegger, Levinas, and Foucault-to situate contemplative practice within contemporary educational theory; Emphasizes the importance of transcultural and intercultural approaches in the philosophy of education"-- Résumé de l'éditeur
