The more than fifty articles, essays, and reviews in this volume,
collected here for the first time, were published by William James
over a span of some twenty-five years. The record of a sustained
interest in phenomena of a highly controversial nature, they make
it amply clear that James's work in psychical research was not an
eccentric hobby but a serious and sympathetic concern. James was
broad-minded in his approach but tough-minded in his demand that
investigations be conducted in rigorous scientific terms. He hoped
his study of psychic phenomena would strengthen the philosophy of
an open-ended, pluralistic universe that he was formulating during
the same period, and he looked forward to the new horizons for
human experience that a successful outcome of his research would
create.
Robert A. McDermott, in his Introduction, discusses the relation
of these essays to James's other work in philosophy, psychology,
and religion.
In the second edition of this groundbreaking text in non-Western
philosophy, fifteen experts introduce some of the great
philosophical traditions in the world. The dozen essays collected
here unveil exciting, sophisticated philosophical traditions that
are too often neglected in the western world. The contributors
include the leading scholars in their fields, but they write for
students coming to these concepts for the first time. Building on
revisions and updates to the original essays on China, India,
Japan, and the Americas, this new edition also considers three
philosophical traditions for the first time Jewish, Buddhist, and
South Pacific (Maori) philosophy."
