About the Book: The Hindu Realism: Being an Introduction to the meta-Physics of the Nyaya-Vaisheshika System of Philosophy The author has made an attempt to present the main metaphysical doctrines of two of the Hindu schools of Philosophy, the Vaisheshika and the Nyaya, constituting what may be called Hindu Realism. The attempt has been made to understand and assimilate the European attitude in matters philosophical and the European mode of philosophic thinking. He has not made any explicit comparison between the realism, or any other phase, of European thinking and the Realism of the Hindus; but has always kept the European ideas and attitude before his mind, so as to make this presentation of Hindu Realism intelligible to the Western reader.
