Well there's nothing "wrong" with him, (I was being sarcastic) - I even have a quote from him as my signature! He was one of the first modern European philosophers to be open to the links between western philosophy and Indian philosophy - which in part probably accounts for why he is kind of "non-u" person in contemporary philosophy. Oh, and he did have some rather dodgy views on women!

There are some really nice uploads of his work on MR - mostly done by Patricia I think - and they are certainly worth a read.
