Description
In this collection, 12 scholars of non-Western philosophy aim to provide an introduction to some of the great and often neglected philosophical traditions of the world. While some of these cultures have long, written philosophical traditions, in others philosophy is to be found in poetry, mythology and folk tales, or is inseparable from wisdom of life in general. Subjects include: Chinese thought, Japanese thought, American Indian attitudes, Latin American traditions, Arabic philosophy, Persian philosophy, African philosophy, Indian philosophies, esoteric philosophy.
