The Wisdom of the Body uses embodied cognition studies to challenge conventional approaches to learning, and offers compelling examples of how an embodied approach to education could revolutionize schools.
Combing cutting edge science and educational philosophy, The Wisdom of the Body offers practical, effective advice for anyone interested in how humans learn and think. With compelling arguments in favor of an embodied approach to school, Shonstrom illuminates the power of learning through physical, sensory experiences, and challenges traditional approaches in education by offering dynamic, ground-breaking examples of how an embodied pedagogy could revolutionize learning.

Erik Shonstrom is the author of Wild Curiosity and The Indoor Epidemic, and has written for The Chronicle of Higher Education, The Los Angeles Review of Books, and Education Week. Erik received his MFA in writing from Bennington College, and teaches at Champlain College in Vermont, where he lives with his family.
