Only a man the calibre of Daisaku Ikeda could bring such a project to fruition. Firmly setting aside cliché and facile answers, he broaches the grand questions that face today's society: cancer, AIDS, death with dignity, in vitro fertilization, biomedical ethics? The responses offered by René Simard, molecular biologist and geneticist, and Guy Bourgeault, bioethicist, are insightful and compelling. Their discussions cut through linguistic and cultural barriers to present a vision of the potential ? an the inherent challenges ? of being human. 606 $aHealth$xReligious aspects$xBuddhism 606 $aMedical ethics$xReligious aspects$xBuddhism 606 $aBioethics$xReligious aspects$xBuddhism 606 $aBuddhism$xDoctrines 606 $aAIDS (Disease)$xResearch 606 $aCancer$xResearch 606 $aSick$xLegal status, laws, etc 606 $aRight to die 606 $aEuthanasia$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00916915 606 $aMedical ethics 606 $aBioethics 610 $amedical ethics 610 $abioethics 610 $aAIDS 610 $asickness 610 $acancer 610 $aright to die 615 0$aHealth$xReligious aspects$xBuddhism 615 0$aMedical ethics$xReligious aspects$xBuddhism. 615 0$aBioethics$xReligious aspects$xBuddhism. 615 0$aBuddhism$xDoctrines. 615 0$aAIDS (Disease)$xResearch. 615 0$aCancer$xResearch. 615 0$aSick$xLegal status, laws, etc. 615 0$aRight to die. 615 7$aEuthanasia 615 0$aMedical ethics. 615 0$aBioethics. 676 $a174/.2 700 $aIkeda$b Daisaku$0322833 702 $aBourgeault$b Guy 702 $aSimard$b Rene? 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910279743603321 996 $aOn being human$92291239 997 $aUNINA
