Summary: "Introduction to Interdisciplinary Studies provides a comprehensive introduction to interdisciplinary studies with an approach that is succinct, conceptual, and practical. Completely updated to reflect advances in the literature on research, learning, and assessment, the book describes the role of both disciplines and interdisciplinarity within the academy, and how these have evolved. Authors Allen F. Repko, Rick Szostak, and Michelle Phillips Buchberger effectively show students how to think like interdisciplinarians in order to facilitate their working with topics, complex problems, or themes that span multiple disciplines. New to the Third Edition are guiding questions at the start of each chapter; a discussion of the public policy issue of "basic income" as an example at the end of each chapter; group exercises added to Chapter 10; and a class project illustrated in Chapter 9; plus updated examples and references throughout"--
