Book | Chapter

This is an attempt to bring into focus and to the light of day Professor William Ernest Hocking's not-too-well-known deep interest in Oriental and East-West philosophies — and his conviction concerning the important contributions to philosophy which can be brought about by serious consideration of the Eastern approaches to the human being, human experience, and reality itself. (Most of this piece will be couched in Professor Hocking's own words, first, to call these statements of his to the attention of many who are not familiar with his interest in these fields, and also, secondly, because his own words are more authentic than any secondary description of them could be.)
