Radhakrishnan, S. & Raju, P.T., [red.] — The concept of man. A study in comparative philosophy.

Bharat Ratna Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan was an Indian philosopher and statesman. He was the first Vice-President of India (1952-1962) and subsequently the second President of India (1962-1967). One of India's most influential scholars of comparative religion and philosophy, Radhakrishnan is thought of as having built a bridge between the East and the West by showing that the philosophical systems of each tradition are comprehensible within the terms of the other. He wrote authoritative exegeses of India's religious and philosophical literature for the English speaking world. [ Goodreads] Six contributions on the theme. l George Allen & Unwin. London 1960.
