Mahesh Chandra Nyayaratna wrote the text of Navya-nyaya-bhasa-Pradipa in a very lucid and easily understandable Sanskrit to explain some technical aspects of  Navya-nyaya language. A Bengali translation and even a Bengali commentary of the text has been available for quite some time (since 1973 to be precise). But there was no English translation or any exposition of the same and hence readers and researchers who can not read and understand Bengali and Sanskrit were deprived of making use of this text.

The present work, therefore, will bridge that gap in its own modest way. The work contains English translation along with detailed notes and diagrams which aim at making the abstract ideas not visible. It will be useful to the beginners as well as advanced learners of Navya-nyaya.

Even students and scholars of Logic and Computer Science may find this work interesting and profitable.
