The practice and theory of Tibetan Buddhist logic and epistemology is the focus of this clear and thorough exposition. Debate is the investigative technique used throughout Tibetan education to sharpen analytical capacities and convey philosophical concepts- it is essential to master the procedure of debate. Using a debate manual by Pur-bu-jok Jam-ba-gya-tso (1825-1901) as its basis, Daniel Perdue covers elementary debate and demonstrates its application to a variety of secular and religious educational contexts. The translation is supplied with annotations on procedure and content drawn from Tibetan teachers expert in debate. 0937938769
