Description

The Buddhist view of the mind- how it works, how it goes wrong, how to put it right- is being increasingly recognized as both profound and highly practical by scientists, counselors, and other professionals. In the "Psychology of Awakening," editors Gay Watson, Stephen Batchelor, and Guy Claxton have compiled a wide-ranging and penetrating selection of articles on the relevance and application of Buddhist philosophy and practice in the modern Western world. Divided into four parts, the book explores the contemporary mind and philosophical issues in Buddhism; the scientific perspective of the Buddhist concept of body, mind, and spiritual development; Buddhism and psychotherapy; and practical applications of Buddhism in contemporary life.
Accessible and authoritative, "The Psychology of Awakening" will be of interest to those who wish to better understand the workings of their own mind, and also those seeking new ways of mastering the challenges we all face in modern life- personal, professional, and cultural.

Psychology of Awakening, Gay Watson, Stephen Batchelor & Guy Claxton, eds., Weiser, 347 pages, $19.95
