Overview for Meaning, Truth and Predication: A Reconstruction of Nyaya Semantics

This book is one what has come to be known as Indian philosophy. The term 'Indian philosophy', and for that matter any other term of a similar nature, has a ring of vagueness about it. Whatever be the essential elements of the meaning of the term, what I have done in this book will perhaps justify the claim I am making. Plainly speaking, I am an Indian teaching or 'doing' philosophy in an Indian university, and I have reacted here in this book to some of the views of the past masters of my land. Again, negatively speaking, if what has been done in this book can be called philosophy, it is certainly not Western, Greek, Chinese, Japanese or Islamic philosophy. Experts in such philosophies may find it hard to follow the trend of arguments of the book, not because these are faulty or unworthy or unphilosophical, but because they are not familiar with such a brand of philosophy and so may lack interest in it.
