Description
Reason's Traces: Identity and Interpretation in Indian and Tibetan Buddhist Thought. By MATTHEW T. KAPSTEIN. Studies in Indian and Tibetan Buddhism. Boston: WISDOM PUBLICATIONS, 2001. Pp. xviii + 473. $34.95. This is a collection of essays and translations, some previously published and some revised from the author's 1986 doctoral dissertation. More than half the work is taken up with Indian Buddhist discussions of the self and personal identity. But there are also essays on other topics in Indian and Tibetan Buddhist philosophy, as well as on tantrism in India and Tibet. There is an extensive bibliography, as well as useful indices, one of personal names and the other of subjects and technical terms.
