Japan is the place where the author carries out her research, the results of which go way beyond the Japanese borders and resonate powerfully with a global audience. The book shines a spotlight on crucial issues such as hikikomori, child suicides, and new forms of youth isolation, but its main theme is something else that will engage the reader from the very first pages. It’s a riveting exploration of the weakening of our innate human sensitivity with implications and consequences that affect us all, as they arise from causes and contexts that are common to everybody. The most vulnerable are children, adolescents, and young people who are increasingly immersed in the virtual world and alienated from the creative complexity of true reality which is the only reality in which innate sensitivity can truly thrive and fulfill its formative role. The author takes the reader on a captivating journey offering insights and awarenesses that will encourage, inspire and motivate.
