WUaS Idea- and Academic Resources

Ideas

A philosophy of loving bliss neurophysiology?

How might evolutionary biology richly influence analytic philosophy? Similarly, how might evolutionary biology richly influence yoga-related philosophies?

How to teach critical thinking? (Critical thinking, in its broadest sense has been described as "purposeful reflective judgment concerning what to believe or what to do." The list of core critical thinking skills includes interpretation, analysis, inference, evaluation, explanation and meta-cognition. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Critical_thinking)

In what ways could and have thinkers brought together the dialogue / conversation approach of Plato's Middle Dialogues with the improvisational approach of the Grateful Dead, to create new kinds of philosophical conversation, as well as texts? Both Rorty and Nehamas, for example, seem to create new approaches to philosophy.
