“This book fills a long overdue and urgent need in the comparative
philosophy of religion.”—Journal of Ecumenical Studies
“This study constitutes a significant contribution to the field as
the first and only attempt so far to relate John H. Hick with
Śankara. It also offers a much broader discussion of the key
concerns of philosophy of religion than any other work and brings
into the discussion also some other major Western authors such as
Paul Tillich and W. C. Smith. Sharma’s familiarity with modern
Western analytic philosophy and its concerns adds a new element to
the philosophy of religion discussion.”—Klaus K.
