Lisa Lucca talks with producer Anne Carlucci who shares how she went from humble beginnings and an abusive marriage to making more than 65 films during her thriving career in television. This multi-dimensional conversation with Zen Priest Harvey Daiho Hilbert focuses on some of the challenges and choices that we face today as individuals and as a culture, a society.
Daiho shines a light on the influences of Buddhism, art, language, writing, painting, personal choices, history, journaling, mental health, meditation and more. The conversation touches on questions like; What do we think is "real"? Why? How do we know? Have we ever been, and are we ever going to be, a harmonious species? If not, does conflict urge us toward finding individually and collectively creative solutions? Is that in itself something to be grateful for? A wide-ranging exploration of some of the difficulties and opportunities we face within ourselves, and our world today.

Incorporating Societal Values in Environmental Research, published in 2011. He is also the author of the 2017 book, A Tapestry of Values: An Introduction to Values in Science, and the 2022 book, Values in Science for the Cambridge University Press Series, Elements in the Philosophy of Science.
