Here it is, at long last: Ernst Steinkellner's much awaited English translation of what is arguably the oldest Indian treatise dealing purely with logic, Dharmakīrti's Hetubindu or, "A Splash of the Logical Reason". Based on the recently rediscovered Sanskrit. In print as well as in Open Access: https://verlag.oeaw.ac.at/produkt/a-splash-of-the-logical-reason/99200857?product_form=4624
Testing the system here with a pointer to a new publication that appeared in a series I'm editing at the Austrian Academy of Sciences Press: Tom J. F. Tillemans, "Views from Tibet : Studies on Tibetan Buddhist Logic, the Philosophy of the Middle, and the Indigenous Grammatico-Linguistic Tradition". A collection of previously published and revised articles, plus one new chapter. Also available in Open Access: https://verlag.oeaw.ac.at/en/product/views-from-tibet/99200897?product_form=4605#publications#TibetanStudies#BuddhistPhilosophy
