Reviews

Philosophy and Art in Southeast Asia is an exciting introduction to philosophical aesthetics—indeed, with its emphasis on logic, to philosophy in general. Presenting scintillating aesthetics problems, and informative about Southeast Asian culture and the complications of breaking away from colonialism, it also offers fascinating examples of Southeast Asian arts. It provides a powerful introduction for courses in aesthetics, philosophy, Asian Studies, and art history. * Mara Miller, Independent Scholar in Philosophy, Art History, and Japanese Studies and Research Associate, Center for Biographical Analysis, University of Hawaii-Manoa, USA *
