Summary of Japan the People (Lands, Peoples, & Cultures)
Four new countries and nine updated editions have been added to Bobbie Kalman's popular Lands, Peoples, and Cultures series. These powerful and intimate portraits of countries use up-to-date information and full-color photography. Presented in a mini series format, three books per country ensures thorough coverage of all the important aspects. It also allows more students to work on different projects at the same time. Covering more than basic history and geography, students will be fascinated to learn about:-- the land... geography, agriculture, transportation, history, industry, and glorious wonders
-- the people... unique customs, customs we share, problems faced by minority groups and women
-- the culture... modern festivals, ancient processions, food, games, and more
This updated book includes new information on the distinctive blend of traditional and modern ways of life in Japan, the challenges faced by Japanese society today, and leisure activities such as manga and karaoke. Brilliant new photographs depict their homes, workplaces, and schools.
Other topics include:
-- family life
-- various Japanese workplaces
-- a day at a Japanese school
-- the Japanese language
-- popular sports such as baseball and sumo wrestling
