Since its inception a decade ago, the International Conference<br >on the Unity of the Sciences has had as its stated goal to shed critical<br >light on the moral and human dimensions in the application of science<br >and technology to the pressing problems of society. In steady pursuit<br >of this goal, the Conference has become an established international<br >forum for multidisciplinary exchange of views on timely and significant<br >issues of growing worldwide concern.<br > These volumes represent the Tenth Anniversary meeting of ICUS,<br >convened on November 9-13, 1981 in Seoul, Korea in the homeland<br >of the founder, the Reverend Sun Myung Moon. In all, more than<br > 1,000 scientists, scholars and observers from every field of academic<br > study from 109 nations were in attendance.<br > Reverend Moon set the tone for the Conference on the theme<br > of "The Search for Absolute Values and the Creation of the New<br > World", with his proposal of the buildingof an International Highway<br > system linking the countries of the East and West, to realize world<br > peace.<br > According to Reverend Moon:<br > With the integration of the world s economies, tremendous eco-<br > nomic progress will become possible and the people, who will all be<br > leading affluent lives, will be able to devote much of their time to<br > leisure. They will have time to understand nature and learn from it,<br > to give thanks to God for its beauty, and to live for and love each<br > other, transcending nationality. It is my conviction that such an ideal<br > world in which all people enjoy true life will certainly come.<br >
