All of us in education, whether teachers or students, navigate a paradox. To build deep knowledge of any particular kind, we have to drill into the limited areas of study we call disciplines. But our experience of the world isn't disciplinary: We're confronted with experiences and challenges of so many different types, all the time.

And that tension between specificity and generality is only growing more fraught in a time where our problems seem so huge and so transdisciplinary.

In this episode, we speak with Peter Dougherty, Director of the American Philosophical Society Press, and the architect Mokena Makeka about how we can navigate these competing needs for building specialized knowledge and for addressing problems that can't be defined through any one practice.
