add to cart   close window

The article focuses on the book "Richer by Asia," by Edmond Taylor. Taylor, after something over two years in India, Ceylon, and Southeast Asia, from 1943 to 1946 found his intellectual and spiritual life greatly enriched. If the world at large, he feel could learn what he learned in that experience, it too would grow much richer by Asia. His enrichment consisted in coming to understand for specific reasons what he might have been willing to admit only in disembodied principle before he went there, namely, that Asia and Asians have a right to their own lives free of Western imperialism
