While recognizing that our survival is threatened by the imbalance between human immaturity and technological achievement, the optimistic message ofChoose Lifeis that man-made evils have a man-made cure. Arnold J. Toynbee and Daisaku Ikeda discuss the problems of pollution, dwindling natural resources, conflict and war, the role of religion, and population growth, all of which are even more pressing today than when the conversations took place 30 years ago. In this volume--which is now reissued for a new generation of readers--the inspiring challenge issued is framed as follows: Will humankind choose to salvage its destiny by a revolution in thinking and morals? Or will disaster ensue if it pursues its present course towards self-destruction and the despoliation of the environment?Toynbee, Arnold is the author of 'Choose Life A Dialogue', published 2007 under ISBN 9781845115951 and ISBN 1845115953.
