Exploring the intersection of culture and philosophy, the book examines how cultural backgrounds shape our understanding of key concepts like knowledge, creativity, and societal roles. Thomas Kasulis identifies two primary orientations—intimacy and integrity—that influence interpersonal and contextual relations, revealing their fundamental incompatibility. Rather than seeking to transcend these differences, he advocates for a cultural bi-orientationality that fosters adaptability across diverse contexts. Written in an accessible style, it encourages readers to deepen their awareness of cultural roots and navigate differences effectively.
