This collection is based on an international conference held at Smith College in April 1984. In it representative scholars Buddhist and Christian, including Abe Masao, Jan Van Bragt, Langdon Gilkey, Thomas Altizer, Gordon Kaufman, Sten Stenson, Steven Rockefeller, Robert Thurman, and Thomas Kasulis grapple with the implications of Nishitani’s thinking for the modern world, particularly as it relates to the question of God, problems of science and ethics, the meaning of history, and the understanding of Buddhism.
