Foundations of Indian Psychology, Volume 2
by Girishwar Misra, R. Matthijs Cornelissen, Suneet Verma
Overview
The first volume had laid the groundwork for a new study in psychology based on the fascinating theoretical and conceptual insights that Indian thought offers. Carrying forward the endeavour to broaden the view of its readers, Foundations of Indian Psychology Volume 2: Practical Applications focuses on the practical applications of the Indian influences in Psychology. Second in a two-part series, this book discusses aspects of psychology vis-a-vis health, education and social issues. With a result-based orientation, the 17 essays in the volume analyze how the theories and concepts discussed in the previous volume can be used to address issues plaguing modern society. This book allows students and scholars of psychology, philosophy, sociology and religion as well as the general reader to apply these practices in his every-day understanding of the world.
