The past few years have shown a growing interest in cooking and
food, as a result of international food issues such as BSE, world
trade and mass foreign travel, and at the same time there has been
growing interest in Japanese Studies since the 1970s. This volume
brings together the two interests of Japan and food, examining both
from a number of perspectives. The book reflects on the social and
cultural side of Japanese food, and at the same time reflects also
on the ways in which Japanese culture has been affected by food, a
basic human institution. Providing the reader with the historical
and social bases to understand how Japanese cuisine has been and is
being shaped, this book assumes minimal familiarity with Japanese
society, but instead explores the country through the topic of its
cuisine.
