  • 소개/요약Philosophy 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. These readings shed light on the contemplative turn in contemporary education and its potentials, difficulties and implications for educational theory and practice. The chapters in this edited volume move beyond simplistic explanations of “East” and “West” to explore the complexity and diversity of various wisdom traditions. The book includes: • Explorations of mindfulness in contemporary education as it intersects with science and wisdom traditions. • Investigations of Buddhist, Taoist, and Vedantic traditions as they shed light on contemporary educational theory and practice. • Interpretations of contemplative education in light of philosophers such as Heidegger, Levinas and Foucault.
