A Call to Renewal
A call to advance integrative teaching and learning in higherFrom Parker Palmer, best-selling author of The Courage to
Teach, and Arthur Zajonc, professor of physics at Amherst
College and director of the academic program of the Center for
Contemplative Mind in Society, comes this call to revisit the roots
and reclaim the vision of higher education. The Heart of Higher
Education proposes an approach to teaching and learning that
honors the whole human being?mind, heart, and spirit?an
essential integration if we hope to address the complex issues of
our time. The book offers a rich interplay of analysis, theory, and
proposals for action from two educators and writers who have
contributed to developing the field of integrative education over
the past few decades.
The Heart of Higher Education is for all who are new to
the field of holistic education, all who want to deepen their
understanding of its challenges, and all who want to practice and
promote this vital approach to teaching and learning on their
campuses.
