Ordering books for my Spring 2024 Duke course “Asian Religions and Knowledge of the Other.” Can’t wait to share #seeingothers by Michele Lamont @mlamont6 with my students! It is a book with sociological rigor & offers real hope in action. #booksforourtime

[Anna Sun @anna__sun]

I can’t wait to read this book! Have already been telling colleagues and students about it. A much-needed analysis - with solution - for our deeply divided world. Loved the Ted Talk on the same subject!

Been back for a few days and wanted to share this photo from the Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences (@CasinaPioIV). One of the best conferences I���ve attended. Learned so much from philosophers studying non-Western traditions, theologians, psychologists and social scientists!
