The Philosophy of Seyyed Hossein Nasr
Library of Living Philosophers, Volume XXVIII

Edited by Lewis E. Hahn, Randall E. Auxier, and Lucian W. Stone, Jr.

Volume XXVIII in Open Court's critically acclaimed Library of Living Philosophers series examines the work of Persian Sufist Seyyed Hossein Nasr, considered to be the most important living Muslim philosopher.

Nasr has been very influential in the fields of comparative religion, theology, and Islamic studies, as well as philosophy and comparative philosophy. He has broken new ground in his writings on History of art, history of science, and Sufism (Islamic mysticism).

As in the other volumes in this series, the subject discusses his life and philosophical development in an intellectual autobiography. This is followed by 33 critical essays by distinguished scholars; Nasr replies to each of these essays.
