consigning the psyche's deeps and expanses to "Here Lie Dragons."
　　　　  Medicine, once the crown jewel of reductionist scientism, has
　　　　  improbably opened up an unexpected vista. Its newly discovered
　　　　  mind-body pathways are leading to the largely unexplored terrain of
　　　　  the human spirit. We seem to suddenly be on the cusp of a moment
　　　　  foreseen by Claude Bernard, the founder of modern physiology: "I
　　　　  have conviction," he wrote, "that when Physiology will be far enough
　　　　  advanced, the poet, the philosopher, and the physiologist will all
　　　　  understand each other." Surely, the late Buckminster
　　　　  Fuller--syncretic thinker extraordinaire--would have understood.
　　　　  Asked where a proper investigation of the human condition should
　　　　  commence, he answered without hesitation: "You start with the
　　　　  universe."
