Pedagon: Interdisciplinary Essays in the Human Sciences, Pedagogy, and Culture (Counterpoints : Studies in the Postmodern Theory of Education, Vol 15)

Pedagon, a collection of essays by Canadian scholar David Geoffrey Smith, exemplifies a new genre of interdisciplinary writing. Drawing on such discourses as hermeneutics, literary theory, international relations theory, media and technology studies, Buddhism, and education, Professor Smith weaves a series of illuminating and provocative tapestries that find their focus in questions relating the practices of culture to the conduct of pedagogy.
