Episode 8
For this episode, we chat with Peter Hershock, Director of the Asian Studies Development Program (ASDP) and Education Specialist at the East-West Center in Honolulu, Hawai‘i. Trained in Asian and comparative philosophy, his research and writing draw on Buddhist conceptual resources to reflect on and address contemporary issues of global concern. He has authored or edited more than a dozen books, including a new book that we will be discussing today: Buddhism and Intelligent Technology: Toward a More Humane Future (2021), out now on Bloomsbury Publishing.
