Taylor & Francis Sir John Woodroffe Tantra and Bengal
Book SynopsisWorking with Bengali mentors, especially his close friend A. B. Ghose, Sir John Woodroffe became the pseudonymous orientalist Arthur Avalon, famous for his tantric studies at the beginning of the twentieth century. Best known for The Serpent Power, the book which introduced ''Kundalini Yoga'' to the western world, Avalon turned the image of Tantra around, from that of a despised magical and orgiastic cult into a refined philosophy which greatly enhanced the prestige of Hindu thought to later generations of westerners.This biographical study is in two parts. The first focuses on Woodroffe''s social identity in Calcutta against the background of colonialism and nationalism - the context in which he ''was'' Arthur Avalon. To a very unusual degree for someone with a high position under the empire, Woodroffe the British High Court Judge absorbed the world of the Bengali intellectuals of his time, among whom his popularity was widely attested. His admirers were attracted by Trade Review'Excellent, painstaking biography.' - Bulletin of the School of Oriental and African Studies'Kathleen Taylor has not only produced a biography worth waiting for but also, as the title suggests, shed light on some wider issues regarding the study and practice of Tantra in Bengal in the early decades of the twentieth century.' - Contemporary South Asia'Excellent, painstaking biography.' - Bulletin of the School of Oriental and African Studies'fascinating work ... relevant to all of those working on South Asian Studies, or interested in a well-grounded analysis of the encounter between 'East and West' that goes beyong the one-dimensional' - IIAS Newsletter'Kathleen Taylor has not only produced a biography worth waiting for but also, as the title suggests, shed light on some wider issues regarding the study and practice of Tantra in Bengal in the early decades of the twentieth century.' - Contemporary South AsiaTable of ContentsList of Illustrations, Preface, Acknowledgements, Abbreviations, INTRODUCTION, PART 1 SIR JOHN WOODROFFE 1865-1936 A biographical study, PART 2 ARTHUR AVALON The Creation of a Legendary Orientalist, Appendices, Notes, Bibliography, Index

The Companion is divided into seven parts: Historical Context Metaphysics Epistemology Mind and Language Moral and Political Philosophy Natural Philosophy and the Material World Philosophical Theology.

The Routledge Companion to Seventeenth Century Philosophy is an excellent work that will prove a valuable resource for students and scholars alike." - Nicholas Jolley, Locke Studies "Extensive in the diversity of its content, and with chapters from leading specialists, this volume will provide an excellent introductory resource for any student of early modern philosophy. … This volume will provide a very useful tool for both scholars and students of early modern philosophy. It is well presented, with sections that cover not only the basics regarding the central philosophical themes of the seventeenth century, but also some of the more important debates in the secondary literature. Likewise, the reader will find both its ‘Index of Names’ and ‘Index of Subjects’ an extremely helpful research tool." - Christopher Thomas, British Journal for the History of Philosophy"It’s no small task for a book to capture all the most recent shifts in thinking about seventeenth-century philosophy. This work admirably rises to the challenge. With wide-ranging contributions from multiple experts in the field, the volume is inclusive, up-to-date, and deeply historically informed. It’s a marvellous achievement." - Jacqueline Broad, Monash University, Australia"This is an outstanding guide to seventeenth-century philosophy. With accessible, intelligent and reliable treatments of an admirably comprehensive range of topics, the Companion orients the reader in the press of seventeenth-century philosophical debate very effectively. This superb volume is a gift to students and scholars alike." - Thomas Holden, University of California Santa Barbara, USA"The Routledge Companion to Seventeenth Century Philosophy exemplifies the breadth and sophistication of current historiographical scholarship on the period. Its thematic organization welcomes those who are less familiar with the philosophies of the time and reflects the eclectic complexity of the philosophical practices and concerns unique to the 17th century European context." - Rebecca Copenhaver, Lewis & Clark College, USA"The Routledge Companioin to Seventeenth Century Philosophy is an excellent work that will prove a valuable resource for students and scholars alike." - Nicholas Jolley, University of California, Irvina, USA"...

Taylor & Francis Ltd Ecotherapy in Practice
Book SynopsisEcotherapy in Practice reflects the growing interest and research in this field. Drawing on a diversity of experience from the counselling and psychotherapy professions, but also from practitioners in community work, mental health and education, this book explores the exciting and innovative possibilities involved in practising outdoors. Caroline Brazier brings to bear her experience and knowledge as a psychotherapist, group worker and trainer over several decades to think about therapeutic work outdoors in all its forms. The book presents a model of ecotherapy based on principles drawn from Buddhist psychology and Western psychotherapy which focuses particularly on the relationship between person and environment at three levels, moving from the personal level of individual history to cultural influences, then finally to global circumstances, all of which condition mind-states and psychological wellbeing. Ecotherapy in Practice will provide refreshing aTrade Review"The Ten Directions approach, as described in Caroline Brazier’s very helpful book Ecotherapy in Practice: A Buddhist Model, provides a useful framework for working in many different styles of outdoor healing, social or educational endeavors. This guide is a marvelous contribution to our field."Linda Buzzell, Co-editor, "Ecotherapy: Healing with Nature in Mind" (Sierra Club Books)"In her book, Ecotherapy in Practice: A Buddhist Model, Brazier offers a new conceptual model for ecotherapy practice. This is intelligently woven together using ideas from Buddhism and the field of psychotherapy. Interspersed throughout the book is clear guidance for anyone wishing to work therapeutically outdoors. Brazier shows how Buddhism offers a natural home for ecotherapy with its teachings on mindfulness, presence, interconnectedness, reciprocity and the nature of change. This is a much needed practice as we head into climate change and global social unrest."Mary-Jayne Rust, Ecopsychologist, Jungian Analyst, Art Therapist"The Ten Directions approach, as described in Caroline Brazier’s very helpful book Ecotherapy in Practice: A Buddhist Model, provides a useful framework for working in many different styles of outdoor healing, social or educational endeavors.

Written in an engaging readable style, the book traverses a wide range of current ecotherapeutic thinking, the way illuminated by her extensive clinical experience. This is all woven seamlessly into a coherent theoretical framework alongside extensive practical guidance. With this rich landscape, she provides practitioners of all modalities with much needed support for an ethical mindful approach to outdoor therapy in its many different guises. "Hayley Marshall, UKCP Reg Psychotherapist; Clinical Director, The Centre for Natural Reflection, UK"Ecotherapy in Practice is a fabulous wide-ranging tool-box for those who are both new to ecotherapy, as well as more seasoned practitioners, and I know I shall be dipping into it again in the months and years to come.
