"At the center of a constellation of key ideas in East Asian philosophical traditions,
there lies a conception of oneness among human beings. Human beings are intricately
and inextricably intertwined and share a common destiny with other people, creatures,
and things. The ramifications of this idea are wide-reaching, and resonate with important
debates and concerns in contemporary Western philosophy, but many at the forefront
of their fields in the West are unaware of the fundamental shift in perspective that
might be available to them. One of Ivanhoe's aims in this work is to challenge the
dominant paradigm of hyper-individualism, which still enjoys a commanding position
in a great deal of contemporary theory and practice in the humanities and social sciences,
and to describe and advocate for an alternative conception and sense of self, world,
and the relationship between them. In particular, Ivanhoe, who has an extensive background
in and has published influential work on virtue ethics and Asian philosophy, investigates
the implications of oneness for conceptions of the self, virtue, and human happiness."
