Reviews

...a tightly defended view of Madhyamaka nonfoundationalism...this tour de force of analytic philosophy marshals the resources available in Western philosophy, cognitive science, psychology, mathematics, and other disciplines to push a sophisticated line of argumentation that explains why the existence of the external and the internal world as ordinarily conceived is unviable, and why a true theory of ontology is an unobtainable mirage. * Joie Szu-Chiao Chen, Lion's Roar *
