Paperback. Zustand: Good. By 1925, the process of Japan's transition to a modern industrialised, westernised state was pretty much complete.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The indisputable fact of Japan's rapidly aging population has been known for some time. But beyond statistics and implications for the future, we do not know much about the actual aging process. Senior citizens and their varied experiences have, for the most part, been obscured by stereotypes. This fascinating new collection of research on the elderly works to put a human face on aging by considering multiple dimensions of the aging experience in Japan. Faces of Aging foregrounds a spectrum of elder-centered issues-social activity, caregiving, generational bias, suicide, sexuality, and communication with medical professionals, to name a few-from the perspective of those who are living them. The volume's diverse contributors represent the fields of sociology, anthropology, medicine, nursing, gerontology, psychology, film studies, gender studies, communication, and linguistics, offering a diverse selection of qualitative studies of aging to researchers across the social sciences.…

Zustand: Gut. XV, 108 S, Umschlag leicht berieben, sonst gutes Exemplar. - Japan is richer in contrast than beauty, despite the image that stereotypes have projected for so long- snow-capped Mt. Fuji, fluttering cherry blossoms, dough-faced geisha and elegant teahouses. We should keep this contrast in sight because it is the energy behind life and growth in Japan. Bob Davis's photographs may not fit our travel-poster-mspired assumptions about Japan, but they are very important in showing us faces more spontaneous than any we have seen before and scenes brimming with both human interest and comment. A kimonoed matron, her face partially covered with a gauze mask because she has a cold, faces a pinball machine with rapt, even greedy, attention. A truck driver polishes his rig with paternal pride. A sumo wrestler, wearing only his traditional loincloth, walks his dog on a narrow back street. Passengers on a crowded train burrow for places to read under mountains of skis and luggage. A family enjoys the view of a lagoon and simple shrine building; behind them an overturned trash can disgorges its contents. A woman works in a small field as her forebears did; just beyond are huge steel storage tanks, the property of a large chemical company. The eighty-eight black-and-white photographs in Faces of Japan catch the feeling of Japanese life in the 1970s with such accuracy and discernment that anyone who has been in Japan in the last few years must agree, "Yes, that's how it really is." This portfolio of Bob Davis's work on Japan, introduced by journalist Murray Sayle, a fellow Australian, goes far beyond the posed and sweetened image of Japan, to something nearer the truth.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - In 1984, the president of Glico, a major Japanese candy company, was kidnapped from his home by masked men. He escaped, but the nightmare was just beginning. A group calling themselves 'The Monster with 21 Faces' began sending mocking letters to the police and media, threatening to poison the company's candy on store shelves with cyanide.This book investigates one of the most bizarre unsolved crimes in history. The criminals didn't just want money; they wanted chaos. They taunted the police ('Dear stupid police officers.'), gave clues that led nowhere, and successfully forced recalls that cost millions. The 'Fox-Eyed Man,' a prime suspect, was spotted multiple times but never caught.'The Monster with 21 Faces' explores the cultural impact of the case, which led to the suicide of a police superintendent out of shame. After months of terrorizing multiple food companies, the group simply announced they were bored and would stop harassment. They vanished forever, leaving a nation gripped by paranoia about what was inside their snacks.…
