- Moves beyond simplistic explanations of 'Eastern' and 'Western' to explore the complexity and diversity of various wisdom traditions
- Investigates the effect of mindfulness-based curricular interventions on current educational theory and practice
- Uses insights from important Western philosophers-including Heidegger, Levinas, and Foucault-to situate contemplative practice within contemporary educational theory
- Emphasizes the importance of transcultural and intercultural approaches in the philosophy of education
