The Diamondsutra's' Logic of Not And a Critique of Katz's Contextualism: Toward a Non-dualist Philosophy

by Shigenori Nagatomo

Nagatomo (comparative philosophy and East Asian Buddhism, Temple U.) presents two essays--The Diamondsutra's Logic of Not, and A Critique of Katz' Contextualism--in order to work toward what is philosophically necessary to envision holistic non-dualism. More specifically, he proposes a non-dualistic, non-egological scheme as a framework within which to re-examine how the self understands itself, how it understands others, and how it understands its intra-ecological relationship with nature. Steven T. Katz is a contemporary analytical philosopher. Annotation ©2006 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
