Palgrave Studies in the Future of Humanity and Its Successors. New York: Palgrave Macmillan, 10/14—present The Monastic Project: A Manual for Instructors. Begun in 1999, this 67-page manual for teaching, offered for free to anyone requesting it, is utilized by a number of professors around the country in a variety of courses. The Project and Manual was thoroughly updated thanks to a summer 2015 East Carolina University Teaching Grant. The Project is drawn from my investigation of monasticism in various religions, including my own participatory observations in Israeli and American Roman Catholic Trappist, Japanese Zen, Indian and American Hindu, and Thai Theravada monasteries. A presentation of The Monastic Project, entitled “Experiential Learning in the World Religions Course,” was made at the annual meeting of the American Academy of Religion, Denver, 11/17/01. Project updates were provided at the Annual Convention of the College Theology Society, Milwaukee, 5/31/03, and at the American Academy of Religion Southeast Regional Meeting on 3/7/04. An on-campus paid consultation was provided, by invitation, in 12/03 to the theology faculty of the University of St. Thomas in St. Paul. The Project was reviewed by Professor Jennifer Oldstone-Moore in Teaching Theology and Religion 12/2 (April 2009) 109-22. I have made presentations about the Project to lay religious and civic groups. The Project has now been tested by various professors in a variety of religion and other courses. I routinely answer questions and provide support for this growing list of professors via email, phone conversations, and face-to-face meetings at professional gatherings. Editors have expressed interest, but I have chosen to distribute it for free in order to achieve a wider impact.
