Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

Jewel of Reflection on the Truth about Epistemology is here
translated and explained in an invaluable contribution to the
history of knowledge, making available in English the very best
within the traditions of philosophical speculation and argument in
India and Sanskrit over more than twenty centuries. The "Jewel"
distills the best arguments and most important positions of the
past and provides the dominant focus for later philosophic
reflection. The achievement of a great 14th-century logician,
Gangesa Upadhyaya ("Professor Gangesa"), the Tattva-cinta-mani is a
masterpiece of world philosophy, impacting in classical India not
only philosophy but also literary criticism, jurisprudence, and
medical theory for centuries. Among scholars, it is commonly
counted-with perhaps one or two Buddhist treatises and one or two
in Vedanta-among the top four or five philosophic works in the
whole long history of classical Indian civilization (from 500 bce
to the modern period). This three-volume edition of the work marks
the first time time it has been translated into English in its
entirety. Becoming the focal point of the long-running Nyaya school
and canonized in Sanskrit literature, it is famed, across many
schools of philosophy, for cogency of argument and consistency of
analysis. Focused on four "knowledge sources" recognized in Nyaya,
the text covers the epistemology of perception, inference, analogy
and testimony in four chapters. In this landmark translation,
Stephen Phillips provides an English-speaking audience all four
parts with readable translations and running commentary. He
contextualizes, analyzes and translates the text into
understandable prose targeting especially those working in analytic
philosophy but also anyone unfamiliar with Nyaya who may want to
see and make use of its findings now accessible as never before.
