Book Description
This invaluable survey covers all of the main terms and concepts used in Eastern philosophy. It clearly defines the essential philosophical ideas linked to the traditions of Persia, the Islamic world, Japan, India, China and Tibet, and discusses the major principles of Zoroastrianism, Sufism, Confucianism, Taoism, Hinduism, Shintoism, Buddhism, and beyond. Each entry includes a lively and authoritative critical analysis of the term or concept covered.
This book is a uniquely helpful source for anyone interested in coming to grips with the Eastern philosophical world.
Review
"The discussions of Islamic philosophy are some of the best parts of the book, and the author demonstrates a keen understanding of the works of ibn Rushd, ibn Sina, alGhazzali, and al-Suhrawardi. References to Islamic concepts make clear connections to Greek philosophical sources-a helpful touchstone for those grounded in the Western tradition." -- Dan Wolne, University of Hawai'i Press
"Kupperman's book is an excellent exploration of the distinct philosophical investigations of the Asian traditions ... This is a useful and valuable portrait of Eastern philosophy, ... [this work] belongs in every academic library." -- APA Newsletter on Teaching Psychology, Spring 2001
"This book is a classic of its kind and Leaman is to be congratulated for completing such a successful project that can only enhance philosophic scholarship generally and broaden the horizons of Western philosophers...." -- Philosophy in Review
"Leaman is successful in his focus on Eastern philosophy; for academic and larger public libraries." -- Naomi E. Hafter, Library Journal
