Recently copies of my latest book from Bloomsbury arrived at an ashram in northern Germany where I am engaged in intensive sādhana and research on yoga traditions in this country.
I have just reread the book and am happy to say that it was so well proofread that I found virtually no typos in the book.
Because this is an academic book—a monograph, as such books are named—it is expensive. (The price was set by the publisher, not by me!) Samples are available at all of the major online booksellers. It’s available in hardcover and various ebook and PDF formats:
Here is the book’s Amazon link
And Google Books
And the Bloomsbury website
And at Google Play
So far 55 academic libraries have added it to their collections globally, as shown on WorldCat. Perhaps one is close to you and you have borrowing privileges? Or perhaps you would like to ask your library to order it?
Here is the publisher’s overview of Reviving Intellectual Intuition:
Calling for a revival of intellectual intuition in metaphysics long after its banning by Kant, Kenneth Rose overcomes the forgetfulness of being through contemplative ontology. Rose argues for the reinstatement of intellectual intuition in metaphysics long after its banning by Kant. His claim is not merely the conclusion of a thought-experiment or of an exercise in conceptual analysis. It is the result of the contemplative recognition of being with a meditatively concentrated intellect: nous in Greek and buddhi in Sanskrit. Recognizing intellectual intuition as a long-neglected faculty of philosophical insight, Rose shows how it can result in an immediate, intuitive discerning of being. He discusses how being parcels itself out into the intellectual forms providing the underlying nonphysical arrangement of the physical and mental worlds. By reviving the use of intellectual intuition in metaphysics, Rose draws upon historical sources across multiple Asian and Anglo-European philosophical schools. This is a work of contemplative constructive philosophy that breaks down divisions between science, philosophy, and religion and between diverse cultures and divergent worldviews.
