Philosophical Meditations on Zen Buddhism

Klappentext
This book develops a contemporary interpretation of Zen Buddhism.


Zusammenfassung
This book is the first to engage Zen Buddhism philosophically on crucial issues from a perspective that is informed by the traditions of western philosophy and religion. While deeply sympathetic to the Zen tradition, it raises serious questions about the kinds of claims that can be made on its behalf.
