Mirei Shigemori prägte maßgeblich die Entwicklung der japanischen Landschaftsarchitektur im 20. Jahrhundert. Kennzeichen seiner Gärten ist, dass sie die Tradition ehren und sich zugleich von dem Althergebrachten durch eine eigene Sprache lösen. Der erste Teil des Buches setzt sich mit dem Leben Shigemoris und den Einflüssen auf sein Werk auseinander. Der zweite Teil stellt 17 Gärten ausführlich dar.
