The Buddha Was a Psychologist
Lexington Books (Verlag)
978-1-4985-3542-7 (ISBN)
In The Buddha Was a Psychologist: A Rational Approach to Buddhist Teachings, Arnold Kozak argues for a secular, psychological, interpretation of the Buddha’s teachings, with a particular focus on the Buddha’s mind model and use of metaphor. Kozak closely examines the Buddha’s hagiography, analyzing Buddhist dharma through the contexts of neuroscience, cognitive linguistics, and evolutionary psychology.
Arnold Kozak is clinical assistant professor in psychiatry at the University of Vermont Larner College of Medicine.
