Geography of thought: How Asians and Westerners think differently...and why / Nisbett, Richard E. 2003  Book
Nisbett, Richard E. Book
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication New York, Free Press, 2003.
Description xxiii, 263pGrey spine
Summary/Abstract People actually think - and even see - the world differently, because of differing ecologies, social structures, philosophies, and educational systems that date back to ancient Greece and China, and that have survived into the modern world. As a result, East Asians think 'holistically' - that the world is a circle - while Westeners think 'analytically' - that it is ia line. From feng shui to metaphysics, from comparative linguistics to economic history, a gulf separates the children of Aristotle from the descendents of Confucius. At a momen in history when the need for cross-cultural understading and collaboration have never been more important, 'the geograpahy of thought' offers both a map to that gulf, and a blueprint for a bridge that might be able to span it
