About This Book
"From its inception, Buddhist philosophy has been concerned with defining and overcoming the limitations and errors of ordinary perception. To do this was essential to Buddhism's central purpose of establishing a path and method for attaining liberation. Conceptual thought, in this view, is capable of leading to a liberating understanding, a transformative religious experience.".
"The author discusses the workings of both direct and conceptual cognition, drawing on a variety of newly translated Tibetan and Indian texts. This book is indispensable for anyone desiring a deeper understanding of the fundamental issues in Buddhist philosophy. It is also highly relevant to issues current in modern Western philosophy."--BOOK JACKET.
