Cover of Joel J. Kupperman: Classic Asian Philosophy (PDF)

This is a second, revised edition of Kupperman’s introduction to Asian philosophy via its canonical texts. Kupperman ranges from the Upanishads to the Bhagavad Gita through Confucius to Zen Buddhism, walking students through the texts, conveying the vitality and appeal of the works, and explaining their philosophical roots. Kupperman has made revisions throughout the text, clarifying where necessary, and added a new chapter on al-Arabi’s The Bezels of Wisdom, a classic of Islamic Sufism.
