I am sorry I was not able to bring forth Pali Primer during his lifetime, but I feel I am discharging a great obligation even at this late stage.

Prolegomena to a History of Buddhist Philosophy |

The value of Buddhism as a religion and the historical development of Buddhism as a popular religion should not preclude the serious study of Buddhism as philosophy and Buddhism's unique approach to metaphysics, logic, causality and the classic philosophical problems. |
