The most groundbreaking meeting of Eastern philosophy and Western
culture to date. In this father-son dialgue, Revel and Ricard
explore the most fundamental questions of human existence and the
ways in which they are embraced by Eastern and Western thought. In
this meeting of the minds, they touch upon philosophy,
spirituality, science, politics, psychology and ethics. They raise
the enduring questions: does life have meaning? Why is there
suffering, war and hatred? Revel's perspective as an
internationally renowned philosopher and Ricard's as a
distinguished molecular-geneticist-turned-Buddhist-monk results in
a brilliant, accessible and accessible conversation-the most
eloquent meeting yet of Eastern & Western thought.
