The book presents a collection of essays reflecting on over thirty years of research in the human sciences, particularly education. Organized into four thematic sections, it explores hermeneutics, poststructuralism, globalization, and East/West encounters. It serves as a historical guide and an introductory text for graduate students across various disciplines. The author emphasizes interculturality and addresses critical issues in literacy, pedagogy, and cultural healing, drawing on insights from both Western and Eastern traditions and his diverse personal background.

Pedagon , a collection of essays by Canadian scholar David Geoffrey Smith, exemplifies a new genre of interdisciplinary writing. Drawing on such discourses as hermeneutics, literary theory, international relations theory, media and technology studies, Buddhism, and education, Professor Smith weaves a series of illuminating and provocative tapestries that find their focus in questions relating the practices of culture to the conduct of pedagogy.
