Overview

In this work the authors write candidly about what their respective traditions mean to them in both their liberating as well as problematic aspects. Throughout the book their life stories provide the rich soil, perhaps even the rational, for their theological and spiritual development. Despite the marked differences in their life histories and their respective religious faiths, Rita Gross and Rosemary Radford Ruether achieve surprising unanimity on the paramount issue: what engaged Buddhism and what enlightened Christianity can offer in the struggle to create a new future for planet earth.
