| Introduction | Born in England, Gupta has lived most of his life in Canada. His ancestry is Hindu Punjabi. Gupta is a social scientist and philosopher, appointed as an Adjunct Associate Professor in the Faculty of Education at the University of Windsor, Canada. He relies upon empirical studies, archival research, and his experiences, to try to say something meaningful about traditional philosophical problems. His research spans several areas: Reason and rationality in human existence, embodiment in the cognitive sciences, and a cultural philosophy of life. Gupta is the author of: Kierkegaard’s Romantic Legacy: Two Theories of the Self (University of Ottawa Press, 2005), A Common Link: Meaning-Making in Algebra and the Visual Arts (AV Academikerverlag GmbH & Co. KG, 2012), Heidegger and Moral Realism (Pickwick, 2015), and articles across disciplines and in several countries. He obtained a doctorate in Educational Studies from the University of Windsor and earned a PhD in Philosophy from the University of Ottawa. He enjoys animals, planting trees, and spending time with intimates. |
