Eastern Philosophy: Key Readings draws together extracts from a wide range of primary and secondary sources, which cover the many branches of Eastern philosophy and religion. Quotations are arranged under concept headings, and open up the debates on topics such as zen, yin-yang and daoism, as well as offering an overview of Eastern philosophical perspectives on subjects such as happiness, war and imagination. Material is drawn not only from such cornerstone texts as the Bhagavad Gita and the Lao-tzu, but also from modern writings on Eastern philosophy and religion. Extracts are prefaced by Oliver Leaman's succinct introductions, and supplemented by a glossary of terms, all of which make this a unique and accessible way into a fascinating discipline.
