Methodology Of The Heart

Pelias (Southern Illinois U., Carbondale) takes on the soul, spirituality, and heart he finds absent but potentially present in the academy. Openly subjective, Pelias examines how over-confidence in objectivity crushes alternative thinking, especially in members of minority groups. He advocates examining the missing essence of the body and making it present, playful and ready in the context of scholarship. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
