This book explores how the relationship between child and parent
develops in Japan, from the earliest point in a child's life,
through the transition from family to the wider world, first to
playschools and then schools. It shows how touch and physical
contact are important for engendering intimacy and feeling, and how
intimacy and feeling continue even when physical contact lessens.
It relates the position in Japan to theoretical writing, in both
Japan and the West, on body, mind, intimacy and feeling, and
compares the position in Japan to practices elsewhere. Overall, the
book makes a significant contribution to the study of and theories
on body practices, and to debates on the processes of socialisation
in Japan.
