[MD] New Book on Pirsig

[Matt Kundert]

There's a new book going to be released in September on Pirsig called "John 
Dewey, Robert Pirsig, and the Art of Living : Revisioning Aesthetic 
Education" by David A. Granger.  Here's the description and contents from 
palgrave.com:

-------------------
Description
This book explores the writings of philosopher and educator, John Dewey, in 
order to develop an expansive vision of aesthetic education and everyday 
poetics of living. Robert Pirsig's best-selling book, Zen and the Art of 
Motorcycle Maintenance, provides concrete exemplifications of this 
compelling yet unconventional vision.

Contents
Introduction: Dewey, Pirsig, and the Primacy of Lived Experience
Dewey's and Pirsig's Metaphysics
Metaphysics at Work
Dewey's and Pirsig's Aesthetics
Pragmatist Aesthetics and Romanticism
The Poetics of Cultural Renewal
The Poetics of Personal Renewal
Learning and Teaching Art as Experience
-------------------

Looks to be good.

Matt
