Fun Read

I read this book shortly before moving to Japan for 7 months. I think it did a great job in explaining lots of intricacies I came about while teaching English conversation. Fun time and a wonderful country.

Must read!

This should be required reading for anyone planning to work in Japan. I wish that I have read it a year ago. I own few copies, and give them to my "gaijin" friends in Tokyo.OK, this book is also little dated, but have not found anything newer or more accurate.

Excellent, easy to read book about the Japanese culture

As am American, who grew up in Japan, I was fascinated to read this accurate and well written book about the Japanese mind. It explained alot of what I knew, or what people commonly think about the Japanese culture but never could figure out WHY the Japanese did this or that and what their logic was behind their actions. I have read the book 3 times and have learned new things each time. I highly recommend this book! Bravo Mr. Christopher!

Essential reading //LBB

A fine insight into a very homogeneous society that can be difficult to understand. Christopher provides clear and lucid explanations and illuminates the rationale, for this otherwise, difficult enigma. A work that has most of its elements as timeless, so that this writing will be just as salient many years from now. If you inquire, this is required reading
