| 總結: | The book is a richly illustrated introduction to Japan past and present. It charts the rise of Japan in the modern world, and analyses in non-specialist language a culture and and economy that will growth still further in importance in the 21st century. This book offers up-to-date information on very subject, from Japan's powerful banking and advertising industries to its ceremics and calligraphy, comic book and karaoke, the tradictional arts of landcape gardening and the tea ceremony, and the modern love affair with gambling and golf. From Shintõ shrines to capsule hotels, from traditional festivals and feudal shõguns to tattooed punks and supermarket robots. The book also provides hard information alongside a mass of vivid insights into the life of a nation. It explores Japan's climate and terrain, history, politics and economy, ties of family, company and society, language and literature, and arts and crafts. Full colour maps, graphics and photographs complement the text and illustrated panels are provided to highlight important issues |
