Book Description

January 1, 2011
This study traces the history of the Samkhya in the Indian intellectual tradition as well as in the traditions of historical criticism. The book also offers a new interpretation of the philosophical significance of the Samkhya. In the Epilogue the author examines Sankaras' critique of the Samkhya and reconstructs what the Samkhya rejoinder could have been.
