About this book

Matthieu Ricard considers altruism through the meeting of Buddhism and scientific inquiry. His introduction describes how study with Tibetan teachers, contemplative retreats and later participation in meditation research shaped his thinking about compassion. The discussion connects training the mind with concern for others, drawing on both spiritual experience and exchanges with researchers.
