Pointing at the Moon : Buddhism, Logic, Analytic Philosophy, Paperback by D'amato, Mario (EDT); Garfield, Jay L. (EDT); Tillemans, Tom J. F. (EDT), ISBN 0195381564, ISBN-13 9780195381566, Brand New, Free shipping in the US This volume collects essays by philosophers and scholars working at the interface of Western philosophy and Buddhist Studies. Many have distinguished scholarly records in Western philosophy, with expertise in analytic philosophy and logic, as well as deep interest in Buddhist philosophy. Others have distinguished scholarly records in Buddhist Studies with strong interests in analytic philosophy and logic. All are committed to the enterprise of cross-cultural philosophy and to bringing the insights and techniques of each tradition to bear in order to illuminate problems and ideas of the other. These essays address a broad range of topics in the philosophy of mind, philosophy of language, logic, epistemology, and metaphysics, and demonstrate the fecundity of the interaction between the Buddhist and Western philosophical and logical traditions.
