“Dr. Shah has meticulously followed each and every point presented in NM. It is indeed a comprehensive study of NM for the first time and provides a fascinating reading." - Prof. Vasant Parikh in Journal of the Oriental Institute, Baroda, Vol. 45 Nos. 3-4.
"...The work has a clear style and can be recommended to advanced students before tackling the original work of Jayanta himself.” Prof. Kerel Werner in Bulletin of the School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London.
About Essays in Indian Philosophy "The author is critical, unbiased and he quite often gives unorthodox and controversial solutions. This, to my mind, is the strength of the book and it is for this questioning nature of the discussion and unorthodox character of its conclusions supported by sound evidence from the original sources that I would like to recommend this book to the advanced students and scholars of the classical Indian Philosophy." Prof. S. S. Antarkar in Journal of the Asiatic Society of Bombay Volume 74 (1999). About Samantabhadra's Āptamīmāṁsā
- Critique of an Authority “Prof. Dr. Nagin J. Shah ... has now brought out Samantabhadra's Āptamīmāmsā along with English translation, introduction, Notes-comments and Akalanka's Sanskrit commentary Astašati. He has rightly selected the Āptamīmāmsā for his scholarly treatment as Samantabhadra's work served as a model for later Jaina thinkers and writers while criticising what they considered one-sided philosophical views. In the Introduction Dr. N. J. Shah has made a detailed and objective survery of Nayavāda and Anekāntavāda and their evalution of other philosophical views. ... Dr. Shah has fully appreciated the force of Samantabhadra's arguments and shown the importance of his contribution to Jaina logic and philosophy. At the same time Dr. Shah has not hesitated to point out the anomaly in the arguments advanced by the author wherever he has noticed it." Prof. Esther A. Solomon in Journal of the Asiatic Society of Bombay Volume 74 (1999)
