Title: A great introduction to Eastern Philosophy
Review: This book was not my first introduction to Indian philosophy, though it was my first to Chinese and Japanese philosophy, and I found the information to be well-presented and (at least in the case of Indian philosophy) accurate to the best of my knowledge.One of the previous reviewers of this book has indicated it to be obscuring, but with all the name-dropping of important ideas and thinkers Brannigan does, I can hardly see how he obscures anything. Certainly, this book could be better referenced, but it is only an introductory text, and many of the primary sources used are contained in the text itself.All in all, it's a great introduction to Asian philosophy, especially for those who have a fair amount of Western philosophy under their belt.
