________________
ABOUT THE BOOK
THE NEW DIMENSIONS IN JAINA LOGIC by Yuvacaryasri Mahparajna is a critical study of Jaina Logic in its various important aspects. Yuvacaryasri delivered a series of nine lecturers under the auspices of the Centre of Jaina Studies, University of Rajasthan, Jaipur, on the origin and development of Jaina logic. The present work is substantially based on the subject matter of those lectures. Besides dealing with the central issues of Jain logic, the learned author has thrown new light on anekanta; nayavade, sydvada, and saptabhangi. The topics of inference and universal concomitance have been critically dealt with, bringing out the vital contributions of the Jaina logicians in this field.
While dealing with inference and universal concomitance, the author throws new light on the latter with reference to modern science,
We draw the attention of the reader to the critical treatment accorded to the topic in the book. The work has been made more attractive and valuable by appending some vital logical questions along with their critical and intelligible answers at the end of each chapter. The addition of a number of valuable appendices to the book makes it all the more engaging for the readers.
