Product Description
While ever-changing and modernizing, Japan stays true to its roots. It has an ancient Asian culture at the forefront of today's globalizing world. The delicacy and simplicity of haiku and ink-wash paintings; the serenity of the traditional tea ceremony; the bustling city of Tokyo; the hyper-sleep modernism of bullet trains - these cultural icons and more are celebrated in this volume on Japan's customs and culture.Covering history and religion; family and friends; food and drink; school and work; arts and entertainment; and cities, towns, and the countryside; Tradition, Culture and Daily Life; Major Nations in a Global World explores what makes key countries unique magnets for the world's fascination.
