"I am heading to Japan with my son later this week. I've been reading a set of books to get ready, and this one is one of the best for preparing for the journey. It's my fourth time in Japan, and I wish I had read this book before my first trip. I know Japan has changed, but many things have stayed the same. This book is very well-written, a pleasure to read, and informative." - Amazon Customer Reviews

  • Mô tả

Essential reading for anyone interested in Japanese culture, this unsurpassed masterwork explores the political, religious, and economic life of Japan.

The World War II–era study by the cultural anthropologist Ruth Benedict paints an illuminating contrast between the culture of Japan and that of the United States. The Chrysanthemum and the Sword is a revealing look at how and why our cultures differ, making it the perfect introduction to Japanese history and customs.

This influential book shaped American ideas about Japanese culture during the occupation of Japan, and popularized the distinction between guilt cultures and shame cultures.
