Size: 6x0x9; Inscribed by Richard J. Davidson on title page. Hardcover and dust jacket. Good binding and cover. Edge wear. Scattered underlining and markings through out. xi, 263 p., ill., 24 cm. *Autographed by editor. * This book examines how Western behavioral science--which has generally focused on negative aspects of human nature--holds up to cross-cultural scrutiny, in particular the Tibetan Buddhist celebration of the human potential for altruism, empathy, and compassion. Resulting from a meeting between the Dalai Lama, leading Western scholars, and a group of Tibetan monks, this volume includes excerpts from these extraordinary dialogues as well as engaging essays exploring points of difference and overlap between the two perspectives.
