Dharma and Detachment: Writings on Indian and Tibetan Thought will be of great interest to all readers and students of Simone Weil's work, as well as to those interested in Indian and Tibetan philosophy, religion and phenomenology.
Simone Weil (1909-1943), a profound, original and influential thinker in the twentieth century, was a political writer and activist, and a formidable philosopher. Her best-known writings appeared in English in The Need for Roots (1952), Waiting on God (1951) and Oppression and Liberty (1958). Albert Camus saw her as "the only great spirit of our times".
