Bryan W. Van Norden - The US doesn’t understand Chinese thought (19:25)
Bryan William Van Norden, Ph.D.,  currently teaches in the Humanities at Yale – National University of Singapore and is the author of the forthcoming book, Taking Back Philosophy: A Multicultural Manifesto.  He received his Ph.D. from Stanford University.
