About this book
Jonardon Ganeri explores philosophical reflections from many of the world’s intellectual cultures, ancient and modern, on how each of us creates an inner world. This book is a thought-provoking consideration of the value—or peril—of turning one’s gaze inward for all readers who have sought to map the geography of the mind.

Reviews
Stephen Phillips, author of Yoga, Karma, and Rebirth: A Brief History and Philosophy:
In elegant prose and in an admirable cosmopolitan spirit, Inwardness explores philosophic reflections worldwide, ancient and modern, on interiority, how each of us creates an inner world.

Christopher Hamilton, author of Middle Age:
Jonardon Ganeri’s book on inwardness does the most valuable thing a book can do: it gives pleasure and instruction at the same time. It raises numerous fascinating issues concerning inwardness from a variety of perspectives and explores them with delicacy and tact, inviting the reader to further reflection and exploration.
