Summary: Since its first publication, A Study of Time in Indian Philosophy has been acclaimed as having successfully shown �the simple falsity� of such clich�s that the Indian view of time is �cyclic� or that it is exclusively �illusory�. Given the variety of views discussed in this work, it is evident that the theme of time is intimately related to such basic concepts as being and becoming, change and causality, creation and annihilation. It has been therefore, observed that this book makes an excellent introduction to the heart of Indian thought. (http://www.mlbd.com/BookDecription.aspx?id=13890)
