Description

Mind and Body: East Meets West represents a masterful collection of captivating papers examining the influence of Eastern and Western thought on movement forms in sport, athletics, and physical education. Contributors to this volume, both theorists and practitioners, describe a culture in transformation, actively engaged in transcending mind-body dichotomies. Readers are encouraged to reject the mind-body bifurcation and look at the ‘other side’ of the paradigm as Eastern philosophies meet traditional Western views. Thought-provoking and unconventional, this volume challenges us to explore new possibilities in our teaching, communicating, and living.
