《粘菌を哲学する》 「無尽無究の大宇宙の大宇宙のまだ大宇宙を包蔵する大宇宙」 顕微鏡のレンズを通して、粘菌のなかに無限の宇宙そのものの現れを見出した博覧強記の知の探求者・南方熊楠。 忘れられた植物学者・早田文藏が描くダイアグラムと熊楠が描くマンダラの「偶然」の交差という驚き。 動物と植物、生と死を超越する「粘菌」から語りうる哲学の可能性とは――。 「粘菌」の不思議を華厳思想を導きに読み解き、熊楠が見た無限の「大宇宙を包蔵する大宇宙」に迫る。 ロゴス的知性では解明できない、やりあて／tactという触覚的知性を会得したとき、生命のリズムが動き出す。 人間中心主義が瓦解しつつある今日、自らも粘菌の採集・観察を行う気鋭の哲学者が問う、熊楠思想の現代的意義。

Shipping
We ship worldwide (excluding Japan). Shipping is added at checkout, and each additional book costs less to ship than the first – the amounts are shown in your currency on the product page and in the cart. Orders ship from Japan via Japan Post within 5 business days (excluding Japanese weekends and holidays); delivery typically takes 10–30 days after shipment.
Depending on the number of books and total weight, your order may be split into multiple parcels because of Japan Post weight limits (e.g. 2 kg per parcel). There is no extra charge, and each parcel has its own tracking number.
Import duties and taxes (VAT, etc.) are the responsibility of the recipient under local law (DDU). Parcels returned because delivery was refused are not refunded.
Returns
Because books can be read or copied once opened, we do not accept returns or exchanges for change of mind. For missing or misbound pages, shipping damage or an incorrect item, contact us with photos within 7 days of delivery. Minor shelf wear from distribution (light rubbing or small creases) is normal for new books and is not covered.
