"Identity and Non Identity"  is chapter LIII. In the print version 
there is an extensive "Table of Reference." which lists much of that 
chapter as coming from the "Questions of King Milinda," and "HM," "A 
Manual of Buddhism" by Spence Hardy, and Chinse text and Warren's 
"Buddhism in Translation." Again, this reflect Carus more than anything else.
