      A one-volume reference work which features a range of varied philosophical, ethical and theologial traditions. The encyclopedia is divided into six sections, each of which covers a specific tradition within Asian philosophy including Zoroastrian or Persian, Indian, Buddhist, Chinese, Japanese and Islamic. Within each section the chapters cover such areas as origins of the tradition, approaches to logic and language, positions on morals and society as well as histories of the lives of influential thinkers. The individual essays as well as the structure of this volume allow the reader to compare and contrast the philosophies of these cultures as well as understand the ways in which the cultures have shaped and been shaped by the philosophical understanding. It is possible, for example, to relate the various ways in which Buddhist philosophy has developed in India, Tibet, China, South-East Asia and Japan.
