Garfield, Jay : The fundamental Wisdom of the middle way (Used)

A translation of Nagarjuna's seminal work, offering those with little or no prior knowledge of Buddhist philosophy a view into the profound logic of the Mulamadhyamakakarika. A verse-by-verse commentary explains Nagarjuna's positions and arguments in the language of Western metaphysics and epistemology, and connects Nagarjuna`s concerns to those of Western philosophers such as Sextus, Hume, and Wittgenstein.

Nagarjuna`s greatest work is one of the most influential in the history of Indian philosophy, and has been studied extensively by philosophers in all major Buddhist schools of Tibet, China, Japan, and Korea.

"Garfield`s intrepretation of Nagarjuna is pleasingly clear and evinces a balanced appreciation of his soteriological concerns as well as his dialectical subtlety."Graham Parkes.

"Stands a very good chance of being the first English translation that conveys to the reader something of the profundity and puzzle of the original."Gareth Sparham.

"The Fundamental Wisdom of the Middle Way will be enormously beneficial."Guy Newland.
