This is a second, revised edition of Kupperman's introduction to Asian philosophy via its canonical texts. Kupperman ranges from the Upanishads to the Bhagavad Gita through Confucius to Zen Buddhism, walking students through the texts, conveying the vitality and appeal of the works, and explaining their philosophical roots. Kupperman has made revisions throughout the text, clarifying where necessary, and added a new chapter on al-Arabi's The Bezels of Wisdom, a classic of Islamic Sufism.

I have a Master's degree (MA) in Political Science focusing on political theory and public law. I graduated top of my class (Magna Cum Laude) and wrote my Master's thesis on education. I have been teaching at a prestigious private school the last ten years. Both students and parents have expressed their gratitude and praise regarding my teaching style. The student/teacher relationship does not stop when class ends, and parents particularly have appreciated the care I take to promote student success in and outside the classroom. Most of my students have an eye toward either politics, the law, or teaching upon graduating college. Read more
