This introduction to life and culture in Japan presents a
captivating portrait of the island nation, home to 127 million
people and one of the most robust economies in the world. This
volume focuses on an often misunderstood nation with vast economic
and cultural influence in the United States and around the world.
It combines thoroughly up-to-date coverage of Japan's history,
geography, politics, economics, and society, with a range of
helpful reference tools. Delving deeper than typical reference
books, Asia in Focus: Japan is the ideal authoritative introduction
to Japanese life for students, businesspeople, travelers, and other
interested readers. The volume offers a contemporary look at the
Japanese economy, extensive cultural coverage, and a rich
collection of photographs. This resource also dispels long-running
stereotypes and misconceptions to show Japan's surprising diversity
and creativity. A detailed historical account takes the reader on a
narrative journey from the rise of the Jomon culture some 13,000
years ago to the economic downturn of the 1990s and subsequent
recovery Includes an annotated bibliography and a wide variety of
images
