When Alan Macfarlane first encountered Japan he was like Alice in Wonderland - 'full of certainty, confidence and unexamined assumptions. I did not even consider that Japan might challenge them.' But challenge them it did, just as Japanese customs and culture have baffled generations of travellers.
In this fascinating and endlessly surprising book Macfarlane takes us on an exploration of every aspect of Japanese society, from the most public to the most intimate. He shows how even the familiar and mundane are in fact strange and mysterious, and gradually uncovers the multi-faceted nature of the country and its people.
