Soka Gakkai’s Human Revolution: The Rise of a Mimetic Nation in Modern Japan. Germany, University of Hawaii Press, 2018. https://www.google.ca/books/edition/Soka_Gakkai_s_Human_Revolution/AVgEEAAAQBAJ?hl=en&gbpv=0 It’s an unbiased view on SGI. McLaughlin’s position as the religion as a mimetic nation is quite interesting too.
