This book is the result of the encounter between two real personalities: a (former) Western scientific, became a Buddhist monk, possessing superior intellect unusual and a renowned astrophysicist for his humanism and his ability to make affordable basic discoveries of science . What I extremely like about this book is to have a Buddhist point of view explained in our culture accessible, in response to the great questions on the borders of our technological science. A warning, however: this book is read with more profit if one has already been exposed to the basics of Buddhist philosophy.
