商品簡介
Scholars of education, physical and mental health, and other disciplines explore how and why suffering can be pedagogical in character and how it is often key to authentic and meaningful acts of teaching and learning. In particular, they illuminate affinities between hermeneutical conceptions of the cultivation of character and Buddhist meditations on suffering and its locale in people's lives. Among the topics are a pocket of darkness, the elision of suffering in mental health nursing, the comfort of suffering, compassion loves suffering, and troubled youth in troubled schools.
