This book on Japan is part of a series which provides young readers with an illustrated introduction to different countries of the world. It looks at different aspects of this country with a population of 125 million, describing its long period of isolated development, contrasting it with more recent historical trends and the country's current position as a dominant world economic power. It looks at the landscape, climate, forests and wildlife, and at topics such as education, sport and leisure, religion and festivals, agriculture, industry and government. The author lived for five years in Japan, studying many aspects of Japanese culture. She contributes articles on Japan to newspapers and magazines. - from Amzon
