The Upanishads. The Bhagavadgita. Jainism. Buddhism. Hinduism. Yoga. Mahatma Gandhi. I Ching. Confucianism. Taoism. Maoism. Chinese Communism. Zen. Shinto. Japanese Empiricism. In recent years the philosophers and religious figures of the Orient have been of ever-increasing interest to the West. Their approaches to the problems of existence, their visions of God, humanity, and the universe, their mysticism and morality, offer fascinating alternatives to traditional Western views. UNDERSTANDING ORIENTAL PHILOSOPHY covers the philosophies of India, China, and Japan from the dawn of recorded time to the modern era. It examines the entire spectrum of Oriental thought at its most unworldly or in intensely practical forms. It is an essential guide to learning how the Orient can expand our perceptions of what life is, who we are, and where we are going. "Well-organized...it illuminates Eastern schools and sects...examines sacred writings, deities and principal leaders....draws significant parallels between East and West while at the same time underscoring the vast gulf that separates them." -- Publishers Weekly
