Wiesel invites Nirenberg to a conference of Nobel laureates to be held in Paris in January 1988. The purpose of the conference, to address the principle moral and political problems challenging mankind and explore solutions to them, is detailed in the conference outline which is included. Wiesel states that the "conference grows out of the belief that each of us feels a profound responsibility to confront those issues that affect all humanity." Nirenberg is invited because of the faith that "science and human genius can be used on behalf of the humankind."
