Grounded in philosophy from John Dewey and Maxine Greene, this book sheds light on difficulties and practicalities of examining culture and politics within the realm of interdisciplinary education. Providing both theoretical and concrete examples of the importance of a contemporary arts education, this book offers imaginative ways the arts and sciences intersect with democratic learning and civic engagement. Chapters focus on education in relation to diversity, apprenticeship, and civic engagement; neuroscience and cognition; urban aesthetic experience and learning; and science and art intelligence.

Jay Hanes is an Associate Professor and Director of Graduate and Undergraduate Art Education Programs at Edinboro University of Pennsylvania, USA. Eleanor Weisman is an Associate Professor and Director of Dance and Movement Studies as well as Community and Justice Studies at Allegheny College, USA.
