Peter Raabe of the Philosophy department is celebrating the translation of his latest book into Korean.
“The 600-page Korean version of my book Philosophy’s Role in Counseling and Psychotherapy was painstakingly translated during the past year by Dr. Soo Bae Kim, Professor at the Dept. of Philosophy, Chungnam National University,” reports Raabe. “It’s the second one of my books that Dr. Kim has translated. The first one, Philosophical Counseling: Theory and Practice, was selected by the Korean National Academy of Sciences (NAS) as one of the outstanding books of 2011. This honour came with a $15,000 grant from the NAS to distribute the book to universities, public libraries, and research centres throughout Korea. I can only hope that the current volume does this well.”
