商品描述

This deliberately wide-ranging book addresses issues related to trust, compassion, well-being, grace, dignity and integrity. It explores these within the context of higher education, giving existential and empirical accounts of how these moral duties can be expressed within the academy and why they ought to be. The chapters range from values used in the marketing and management of institutions to their realisation in therapeutic and teacher training spaces. The book opens with a specific introduction which positions the work and outlines the context of duties and obligations at play. This is followed by two distinct but related sections including chapters on theoretical issues, organisational practices and personal praxis. The first part is more abstract and theoretical, the second locates the values discussed within the practices of the university. In doing so the book encompasses a wide range of issues from multi-disciplinary and geo-political regions. The authors are a mixture of world-leading authorities on values in higher education and earlier career researchers, who are nonetheless equally passionate contributors. This mix gives the book vibrancy and offers insight which appeals to both an academic and managerial readership.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

這本故意範圍廣泛的書籍探討了與信任、同情、福祉、優雅、尊嚴和誠信相關的議題。它在高等教育的背景下探索這些問題,提供了存在論和實證的敘述,說明這些道德責任如何在學術界中表達以及為什麼應該這樣做。各章節涵蓋了從用於機構行銷和管理的價值觀到在治療和教師培訓空間中的實現。書籍以一個具體的介紹開篇,定位了這項工作的背景並概述了相關的責任和義務。接下來是兩個不同但相關的部分,包括有關理論問題、組織實踐和個人實踐的章節。第一部分較為抽象和理論,第二部分則將所討論的價值觀置於大學的實踐中。這樣一來,書籍涵蓋了來自多學科和地緣政治區域的廣泛議題。作者們是高等教育價值觀領域的世界領先權威和早期職業研究者的混合體,他們同樣是充滿熱情的貢獻者。這種混合使書籍充滿活力,並提供了對學術界和管理界讀者都具吸引力的見解。
