This book, based on extensive original research, explores the
various ways in which Japanese people think about death and how
they approach the process of dying and death. It shows how new
forms of funeral ceremonies have been developed by the funeral
industry, how traditional grave burial is being replaced in some
cases by the scattering of ashes and forest mortuary ritual, and
how Japanese thinking on relationships, the value of life, and the
afterlife are changing. Throughout, it assesses how these changes
reflect changing social structures and social values.
