Praise for the Volume

Schopenhauer's metaphysics of the World Will stands out in the history of Western Philosophy as having the deepest affinity to Indian philosophical tradition. [The] contributions of this … volume … shed new light on this affinity and identify its roots in a shared morality of solidarity and compassion.
Prof. Dr. Dr. h. c. Dieter Birnbacher, Institut für Philosophie 
Heinrich-Heine-Universität Düsseldorf

This rich and varied volume places Schopenhauer's thinking against the Asian and especially Indian background which he himself identified as the source of inspiration for much of his philosophy of the world and the self as will and representation.
Prof. Dr. Günter Zöller, Professor of Philosophy, University of Munich
