Description: One of the 20th century's most profound interpreters of western philosophy, Nishida Kitaro lived his entire life in Japan. His work - his passion - was the rendering of Oriental metaphysics in the language of Western philosophy. This book carefully and critically expounds Nishida's approach to God, religion, morality, and pure experience. It is dazzlingly erudite but highly readable, and will prove an invaluable introduction to the work of a true world philosopher.
Notes: Includes bibliographical references (p. [205]-217) and index.
