About the book >.>.> Part of the richness of philosophy is also its diversity. Universal human problems, like breath blown into a bottle, have varying sounds, depending on what they strike. Different cultural contain- ers create unique voices and invite us to hear a symphony of responses. Just as travel changes the way we see new places and the home we've left behind, this philosophical tour can open our minds to new possibilities variations on familiar themes. I have taken the Western philosophical tradition as my starting point and organized the readings around its usual structure and categories, choosing selections from other cultures that speak its language. This helps all of us comfortable with Western culture hear these "foreign" voices more clearly. But we must always keep in mind that, in most cases, the writers and speakers did not have the Western tradition in mind. Their philosophical musings, like ours, arise out of and speak to specific social and historical contexts. We need to take them on their own terms as well.
