520 |a Challenging as well as educational, Japanese Cultural Encounters reveals the fascinating differences -- from the significant to the subtle -- between the Japanese culture and our own. This unique book highlights 56 situations, each characterized by a conflict or misunderstanding, which are frequently encountered by Westerners in their interactions with the Japanese. Through these cultural encounters, you will explore many aspects of everyday life: human relations at work and leisure; etiquette, formalities, and customs; commonly misused and misunderstood Japanese expressions; and helpful trivia. Each cultural encounter is presented in a brief narrative, followed by a question about the source of the conflict or problem. You then choose one of four answers and turn to the indicated page at the back of the book. If your answer is correct, more information is provided there about the full cultural context of the dilemma. If you choose an incorrect answer, your misunderstanding is explained and you are sent back to the passage to try again. - Back cover
