This collaborative book by five distinguished scholars in
overlapping fields suggests that fruitful living is extremely hard
work and that social harmony requires the unlocking and the
emancipation of the human brain - the core cerebral source for
advancing human coherence, connectivity, cohesion and civility. The
stakes are simply too high for stakeholders across our country not
to respond to the ongoing and escalating crisis of human division
and the desperate need for engagement, enlightenment, and
acceptance of human diversity. The authors strongly encourage
academic and practitioner psychologists, as well as other students
and social scientists, to join a timely framed narrative for
greater progress in diversity. Neurodiversity aims to encourage
dialogue, discourse, and discovery about what may be obvious to
many but avoided by most - because its forces us to look inward
instead of outward. We can make such inward observations, through
the lenses of psychology, cognition, mindfulness, and
underleveraged brain capacity amid modern cultural neuroscience.
This is critically important - particularly in a time marked by the
widespread amplification of ambiguity, angst, ambivalence, and
anger. This book focuses on "crucial thinking" versus "critical
thinking." The authors pose fundamental questions -- about what we
are calling a form of cognitive "levitation" and taxonomical
"climbing" (CBDT) -- to think about purposes of intellectual
discourse, not necessarily to seek empirical evidence. A special
feature of this book is the inclusion of sample student learning
outcomes as "provisos" throughout the narrative. We have attempted
to integrate the student learning outcomes in the text's narrative
and connect them to the sections where they are inserted for the
reader. The book's embedded taxonomies can also facilitate the
instruction, composition, and conceptualization of targeted student
learning outcomes.
