Mind, Language and World: The Collected Essays of Bimal Krishna Matilal Volume I (Philosophy, Culture and Religion, 1)

The unifying motif of Bimal Krishna Matilalas work is the study of rational traditions in Indian philosophical thought. The two volumes of his collected works analyse the arguments of the classical Indian philosophers and the role of philosophy in Indian society. This volume includes sections on scepticism and mysticism; Nyaya realism; Indian Buddhism; Sanskrit semantics; and philosophy in India: perceptions and problems.
