In his new contribution to the Bloomsbury Introductions to World Philosophies, <a href="https://bookshop.org/a/12343/9781350202252">Sikh Philosophy: Exploring Gurmat Concepts in a Decolonizing World</a> (Bloomsbury, 2022), Arvind-Pal Singh Mandair introduces readers to a tradition often ignored by contemporary philosophers. While simultaneously arguing for the fecundity of Sikh categories and concepts from a philosophical vantage point, Mandair scrutinizes the characterization of Sikh ideas as unified -ism, also problematizing the philosophy/religion divide. And, at the same time as he tracks the historical and intellectual development of Sikh philosophy, examining the reasons for its marginalization, he introduces readers to the main contours of its epistemology, ontology, philosophy of mind, and ethics, in particular bioethics.<a href="http://www.malcolmkeating.com/">Malcolm Keating</a> is Associate Professor of Philosophy at <a href="http://www.yale-nus.edu.sg/">Yale-NUS College</a>.
