Synopsis

A companion volume to Jonardon Ganeri's popular textbook, Philosophy in Classical India: The Proper Work of Reason, this new book surveys in a lively and accessible style the nature of practical and public reason in India. It provides what is missing in Amartya Sen's widely admired The Argumentative Indian: detailed discussion of the thinkers-dissenters and heretics, as well as mainstream voices-whose astonishing ideas so enrich contemporary discussion.
