| Publisher Description: This volume, a sequel to Horizons in Buddhist Psychology: Practice, Research & Theory, is for all who wish to read about cutting-edge developments in Buddhist Psychology and will be of special interest to professionals (coaches, clinicians, teachers), scholars of various academic disciplines (medicine and the social sciences), as well as to the informed public attracted to meditation (students and experts). It provides illuminating insights into "Relational Buddhism," an approach based on "social construction", which lies at the heart of this pioneering work. In this work, Maurits G.T. Kwee provides a rich feast of offerings for practitioners and scholars alike. The work vibrates with the wisdom of the centuries, and simultaneously offers cutting edge resources for therapists, coaches, and teachers alike. The scholarly attempt to ground these contributions in theoretical and historical traditions is well presented. The volume may indeed establish a precedent for illuminating the cultural, historical, and theoretical context of human change practices. |
