Allama Jafari on Bertrand Russell
Synopsis
This book is an analysis of an Iranian philosopher's engagement with a British philosopher. The author compares the ideas of these philosophers within the context of European and Iranian intellectual traditions. This is the first book of its kind, as no one has yet looked at Allama Jafari's thought in relation to Sir Bertrand Russell's. East and West will be a useful work for anyone who is interested in comparative philosophical and sociological studies.

What Reviewers Are Saying
Seyed Javad Miri points out that there remains a need for comparative philosophy within the modern world-an examination of the commitments, assumptions, worldviews, and lifeworlds [of both parties]. . . . [This will serve] to clear a path of demystification so that people of different societies and backgrounds may enter into a civil dialogue, discourse, and debate so as not to 'win' over the opponent, but to gain the understanding of a friend. -- Dustin J. Byrd, professor of humanities, Western Michigan University
