A long-running bestseller, Etiquette Guide to Japan has already helped generations of visiting business professionals and tourists negotiate the complexities of Japanese culture. Now completely revised and updated, this new edition reflects the most recent changes in Japanese etiquette and business practices.
Drawing on their combined decades of experience working and living in Japan, authors Boyé Lafayette De Mente and Geoff Botting provide an insider’s look at this delightful but sometimes puzzling nation. From knowing when to bow and when to shake hands to how to behave in public baths, at tea ceremonies, and on the subway, De Menté and Botting answer all the most common questions.
