Opis

This book puts forward a ‘theory of Nothing’ and shows how a praxis of ‘Nothing’ can offer new possibilities for educational research and practice. Taking inspiration from Heidegger’s and Wittgenstein’s philosophy and with regards to phenomenology and language, the book indicates how nothing can be a condition for an educational technology.
