Myron Orleans

Myron Orleans comes to this topic from a commitment to implement phenomenological perspectives in unexpected contexts. The challenge of penetrating the meaning structures of Alzheimer’s patients whose cognitive functions are declining motivated him to work with specialists in this field to produce this book. As a professor of sociology, he has taught, researched and written about many constructionist applications. Most recently, he published, "Cases on Critical and Qualitative Perspectives in Online Higher Education" with IGI.
