(1988) The birth of meaning in Hindu thought, Dordrecht, Springer.
For the last few decades, practically every attempt to explain Nyāya to the Western philosophical audience was aimed at logical interpretation. This is particularly true with respect to the Navya Nyāya technique. The main difficulty, however, which they run into here, consists in the non-reproducibility of the syntax of Navya Nyāya cognitive constructions. As this problem is really a matter of technique, the interpretive efforts were centered around the selection of the most adequate language of description. But difficulties of this kind usually spring from a double source: namely, they lie in the inadequacy of the means and in the complexity of the object described.
