Book Synopsis
Taking you inside the classrooms of Japanese preschools, this book explores the everyday, implicit behaviors that form a crucially important but grossly understudied-aspect of educational practice. It examines how teachers act, think, and talk. And how they use the tone of their voice to communicate empathy, frustration, or enthusiasm.

Trade Review
"Teaching Embodied is well written and clear-a delight to read. It does a beautiful job of illustrating, persuasively, culture as tacit, embodied, and intercorporeal." (Kathryn M. Anderson-Levitt, University of California, Los Angeles)
