I collect works on this subject and this is a worthy addition. It reads better in small doses — a chapter at a time with notes. The typesetting is comfortable for study, with good margins for notes.
I keep coming back to this one. The language takes some getting used to, but it becomes part of the charm. It pairs well with more modern commentaries on the same tradition.
I've read excerpts online before, but having the full text is different. The typesetting is comfortable for study, with good margins for notes. The print is clean and easy on the eyes for long sessions. Well worth it.
Ordered this after seeing it referenced in another book I was studying. It's become a regular reference in my practice. My only quibble is the cover feels thinner than expected. Still worth having on the shelf.
First purchase from this shop. Some chapters demand a slow, careful read, and that's exactly the point. The text itself is dense but rewarding — you get out what you put in. Good, with the caveats above.
Came across this title in a footnote and had to track it down. The language takes some getting used to, but it becomes part of the charm. Well worth it.
Not my usual area but wanted to branch out. Some sections stopped me cold in the best way. If you're drawn to this subject, don't hesitate.
