Inquiry into the Good (Nishida Kitaro)(Paperback)

An Inquiry into the Good represented the foundation of Nishida's philosophy--reflecting both his deep study of Zen Buddhism and his thorough analysis of Western philosophy--and established its author as the foremost Japanese philosopher of this century. In this important new translation, two scholars--one Japanese and one American--have worked together to present a lucid and accurate rendition of Nishida's ideas. The translators do an admirable job of adhering to the cadence of the original while avoiding unidiomatic, verbatim constructions.--John C. Maraldo, Philosophy East and West More accurate and critical than the first translation into English of Nishida's earliest book. . . . An important addition to library collections of twentieth-century philosophy, Japanese intellectual history, and contemporary Buddhist thought.--Choice A
