    Beyond the Artefact

    by Kaustuv Roy ...
    Series series Education (R0)
    This book provides a new understanding of art education, connecting art, necessity, and pedagogy.

  • Technohumanism, Global Crises, and Education

    Toward a Posthuman Pedagogy

  • Limits of the Secular

    Social Experience and Cultural Memory

    by Kaustuv Roy ...
    Series series Philosophy and Religion (R0)
    This book facilitates a missing dialogue between the secular and the transsecular dimensions of human existence.

  • The Power of Philosophy

    Thought and Redemption
