This book critically examines the development of mindfulness,
tracing its development from Buddhist meditation to its variety of
popular applications today, including the treatment of mental
disorders, wellbeing and improvement of performance. The book
begins with a chapter on the meaning of mindfulness, then moves on
to chart the spread of Buddhism into the western world and examine
the development of Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT). The
second half of the book considers some of the growing concerns
related to mindfulness such as the loss of the moral and
communitarian values of Buddhism, and the psychologicization and
medicalization of existential problems into a capitalist society.
