Sumario: | "Teachers often speak about their love for their subject, their students, and their vocation. As multidimensional as love is, it can be a taboo subject relative to teachers and students. In Love and Compassion, John P. Miller explores different forms of love, including self-love, love of others, love of beauty, and love of learning, and how they can be nurtured in an educational setting to improve teaching and learning. Love and Compassion is both a practical and conceptual work, and will interest those involved in the study and practice of holistic and contemplative education. In addition to the different dimensions of love, Miller discusses nonviolent action and compassion and how they are crucial to the practice of teaching, and reflects on his own and his students' experiences with creating a loving environment in the classroom." |
