Knowledge According to My Gardener

Theory of Knowledge (TOK) is about how to think, not what to think. In Knowledge According to My Gardener, author Ayman Al Zanoun offers fifty stories and crossword puzzles to bring TOK conversations to life and to add a sense of entertainment to learning. Designed to help students and teachers to start meaningful conversations about knowledge and the ends of good education, Knowledge According to My Gardener first tells the story of a struggling teacher who couldn't communicate with students and how discovering the power of storytelling changed his life. It then introduces the gardener, the common thread in all the stories, who embarks on a unique journey to explore knowledge. Each story presents philosophical insights drawn from Plato, Rorty, Wittgenstein, and many others and blends them with the world of everyday life, the world of selfies, football, and birthdays.
