These are some of the urgent questions posed by this stimulating
and wide-ranging new colloquy. Bringing together a wealth of wisdom
and experience in medical science and in Buddhist thought and
ethics, the discussants together address issues of vital current
concern. They ask, for example, to what degree science and
religion, as well as other fields of learning, may find common
ground. They examine the pitfalls, as well as the opportunities,
posed by genetic engineering. They examine the need for science to
develop a proper ethical dimension, particularly in relation to
weapons of war, if it is to realize its true potential. Exhibiting
everywhere a sensitive humanity, as well as a deep respect for
their different backgrounds, the participants exemplify in these
civilized exchanges a mutual passion for developing dialogue as a
profound and practical way of cultivating both toleration and
peace.
