duction and annotations to Dr. Miss E. A. Solomon, who accepted the work and completed it in 1961. The committee then resolved, in its meeting held on 16th December, 1961, to publish it under the P. K. Kotawala Trust.
Ganadhara vāda forms one of the outstanding sections of Višesā vašyaka-Bhāsya by Ācārya Jinabhadra, which is esteemed highly for the exposition of the Jaina Āgamas.
Dr. Miss E. A. Solomon, now a Reader in Sanskrit in the Language Department of the Gujarat University, has specialised herself in the various systems of Indian Philosophy. She has translated the gathās of the Ganadharavāda in the Višeşā vaśyakaBhāsya as well as their elucidation given in its commentary by Maladhāri Hemacandra, supplemented the translation with necessary annotations and given a studied Introduction on the subject.
We hope this publication will be useful to several readers interested in the Jaina system of philosophy. R. C. Marg,
