Buddhism and Psychology: A Hermeneutical Interface
Who should join this course?
Students of the humanities and social sciences, particularly those interested in Religious Studies, Psychology or Asian Studies.
Course content

But how has this happened? Who are we in ‘the West’ that we are interested in Buddhism?
