«La paura vive solo nel futuro, radicarci nel presente è l’antivirus per ogni preoccupazione che investe le nostre vite.» Una sentenza che è alla base dell’ikigai, termine giapponese che significa «qualcosa per cui vivere» e che è diventato lo slogan filosofico del terzo millennio. Il neuroscienziato Ken Mogi e lo scrittore Thomas Leoncini lo coniugano in queste pagine al tema universale dell’amore. Ogni relazione andrebbe vissuta al tempo presente, che si tratti dell’amore sentimentale, di famiglia o più semplicemente del prendersi cura dell’altro o del più debole. Ma come cambia da una cultura all’altra e come influisce l’ascesa vertiginosa del mondo digitale e dell’intelligenza artificiale? Un libro affascinante e profondo che è anche un dialogo audace tra Oriente e Occidente in un’era in cui la globalizzazione incentiva la tendenza a rinchiudersi egoisticamente in se stessi e ad affidare i sentimenti alla tecnologia.
