Indian Philosophy: An Introduction helps readers discover how the many and varied schools of Indian thought can answer some of the great questions of life: Who are we? How can we live well? How do we tell truth from lies?
Accessibly written for readers new to Indian philosophy, the book takes you through the main traditions of thought, including Buddhist, Hindu and Jain perspectives on major philosophical topics from ancient times to the present day. Bringing insights from the latest research to bear on the key primary sources from these traditions and setting them in their full spiritual, historical and philosophical contexts, Indian Philosophy: An Introduction covers such topics as:
· Philosophies of action and knowledge
· Materialism and scepticism
· Consciousness and duality
· Religious and cultural expressions
The book includes a pronunciation guide to Sanskrit and Indic language terms and a comprehensive guide to further reading for those wishing to take their study further.
Jeffery D. Long is professor of Religion and Asian Studies at Elizabethtown College, author of several books, and a 2018 recipient of the Dharma Seva Award for his work to dispel stereotypes about Hinduism.
