It covers the major schools of thought, including Nyaya, Vaisheshika, Samkhya, Yoga, Mimamsa, and Vedanta, as well as Buddhist, Jaina, and materialist traditions. The volume also explores the historical development of these schools and their interactions with other intellectual traditions in India and beyond. With contributions from leading scholars in the field, this handbook is an essential resource for students and researchers of Indian philosophy.
This volume investigates the breadth and depth of Indian philosophical traditions, addressing the core question of how these diverse schools of thought contribute to global philosophical discourse.
