Summary: This handbook brings the work of scholars shaping the field of Indian Philosophy into a volume that presses forward into the future of Vedanta scholarship. Ayon Maharaja's precise overview of Vedanta in the introduction makes the book accessible to the beginning student of Indian Philosophy, even as the chapters push the reader into unexplored material, original theses and innovative cross-cultural work. Providing the first in depth discussion of Vedanta, this handbook includes chapters on classical Vedantic philosophies as well as the modern Vedantic views of Sri Ramakrishna, Sri Aurobindo and Romain Rolland. It offers careful hermeneutic analysis of how Vedantic texts have been interpreted, addresses key debates within Vedanta, and brings Vedanta into dialogue with Saiva Nondualism and contemporary Western analytic philosophy.
