Praise for Dr. Rustom’s A Sourcebook in Global Philosophy<\/em>:<\/p>\n

\"\"In an age where the global and the philosophical are increasingly flattened, this precious book has two immense merits. The first is to free philosophy from parochial European and North American reductive views of it that are largely characterized by an overemphasis on rationality and individualism. The second is to contribute to the reintroduction, and hopefully restoration, of the highest meaning of philosophy as the love of wisdom and as the way leading to it.
\n<\/em>Patrick Laude, Georgetown University\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

A Sourcebook in Global Philosophy\u00a0challenges the attempt to restrict the expression of philosophy to prose texts and\/or the view that attributes the ability to philosophize to merely one subsection of the human population. This work will be a rich source for those seeking to learn about world philosophies, diversify their understanding of academic philosophy, and reorient their ways of being and thinking.
\n<\/em>Monika Kirloskar-Steinbach, VU University Amsterdam<\/strong><\/p>\n

Mohammed Rustom\u2019s sourcebook joins Bryan Van Norden\u2019s <\/em>Taking Back Philosophy\u00a0as one of the most significant steps forward for global philosophy over the past decade. This diverse collection of primary sources in translation challenges cultural assumptions that have long plagued philosophy departments worldwide. If philosophy seeks to be free from the shackles of European and American ethnocentrism, <\/em>A Sourcebook in Global Philosophy\u00a0is the model to follow.
\n<\/em>Cyrus Ali Zargar, University of Central Florida<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong>Without dialogue, a contemporary philosopher warns, philosophy reduces to dogma. The ancients knew this to be true, of individuals as well as traditions. Which is why the Buddhist ruler A\u015boka once said that there ought to be a desire to listen and to learn from\u00a0philosophy in many traditions, if one wishes to exemplify success in one’s own. This excellent\u00a0Sourcebook in Global Philosophy\u00a0can help to seed the necessary desire, and to practice the kinds of dialogue so long valued by philosophers across the globe.
