Item description from seller

Slight wear to spine, covers, corners and dustjacket.; Original cloth embossed goldtype lettering on spine. Slight wear to spine, covers, corners and dustjacket. Arthur Herman offers a penetrating comparative study of how Indian philosophy confronts one of humanity’s deepest questions: why evil exists in a world governed by moral and cosmic order. Drawing on Hindu, Buddhist, and Jain traditions, Herman examines the tension between suffering, karma, and liberation, revealing the subtle ways Indian thinkers reframe the moral problem that has long troubled Western theology. Erudite yet readable, the book highlights how metaphysical insight and ethical reflection intertwine in Indian thought. A significant work for philosophers of religion and those seeking a cross-cultural perspective on suffering and moral responsibility.; Octavo; xv, 326 pages.
