Awakening: An Introduction to the History of Eastern Thought

Review
Praise for the Sixth Edition:
"The high praises attached to Awakening should not come as a surprise. This is the sixth edition of Awakening, and Bresnan has made significant changes in each edition―clarifying his presentations, honing the questions, and adding new elements. . . . [It] is truly a testament to a great educator who is well-versed in a wide range of Eastern traditions and philosophies." Paul J. D’Ambrosio in Teaching Philosophy
