The book explores animism through the lens of four prominent figures in Japan: film director Miyazaki Hayao, sociologist Tsurumi Kazuko, writer Ishimure Michiko, and Minamata fisherman-philosopher Ogata Masato. Taking a biographical approach, it illustrates how they came to the conclusion that animism can help humanity survive modernity.
