When are they going to reissue this?

This is absolutely hands-down the best introduction to non-western philosophy. It lacks a few important philosophies like Zoroastrianism, and an account of Australian Aboriginal thought, but is otherwise phenomenal! I assign it for my non-western philosophy course. Students like it, and there are usually sufficient number of used copies available cheap to make it feasible to assign as required reading. A fascinating glimpse at the world of ideas outside our McWestern box!

Oh...My...God...

Dr. Bonevac is brilliant...period.
