What is done out of love always takes place beyond good & evil. Always provocative the Friedrich Nietzsche of Beyond Good & Evil (1886) is at once sceptical psychologist & philosopher-seer passionately unmasking European society with his piercing insights & uncanny prescience.

All this has changed since the growth of the interdisciplinary fields of cognitive science neuroscience & consciousness studies & the development of new technology. Today ideas arising from Buddhism & from contemporary cognitive science may encourage us to engage anew with our experience our embodiment & our relationships. ...
