About this listen

Japan is at a crossroads. The postwar economic miracle that brought it unprecedented development and prosperity is over. Since the publication of the first Culture Smart! guide, it has been overtaken by China as the world's second-largest economy. The balance of power in Asia has shifted and new players are entering the field. No one can predict how Japan will rise to the challenge, or what effect the changes will have on how people live, think, and behave. Paul Norbury's revised and updated edition of Culture Smart! Japan will guide you through a shifting cultural maze, and help you make your visit to this important, dynamic, and creative society a rich and mutually rewarding experience.

The author contextualizes Japanese cultural practices and norms in their historical and political settings. As a bilingual Japanese-American adult who grew up in the States and visited Japanese yearly until age 12, I recommend this audiobook over others that simply enumerate Japanese cultural practices without explaining their origins or significance.

Great contextualization of Japanese culture
