Dear Jon,

The copyright page for the Motilal Banarsidass reprint of 1999 of their first edition of 1993 describes this edition as: “(Text and translation taken from the Allahabad edition of 1925 with minor correction and revision)”. I copied this from a Google Books preview (https://books.google.com/books?id=P4V6BE1_bdwC&printsec=frontcover&source=gbs_ge_summary_r&cad=0#v=onepage&q&f=false).

I do not see an introduction in this volume or the 1925 volume available at archive.org. In the 2 page preface Sandal writes that he began study of Hindu philosophy in his old age. If there is an introduction in the 1980 edition, it may not be Sandal’s work.

I too did not find a copy of a 1980 edition.

Dear folks,
 
Does anybody have a pdf of Sandal’s introduction of volume 1 in Mimamsa Sutras of Jaimini, Motilal Banarsidass 1980?
Seems impossible to buy a copy of the book.
 
or,
 
Is this identically with Sandal’s Introduction in Mîmâsâ Sûtras of Jaimini, 1925? I do have a reprint of the latter.
 
Kind regards,
Jon Skarpeid
