- Abstract:
- Long-term residents share their stories of acculturation or thriving in Japan, from enjoyable activities to serious research. Readers contemplating a stay in Japan can see typical entry points and occupations, decide whether or not to study the language, and prepare accordingly. Editor John Rucynski describes the collection as a "captivating tapestry woven by people whose passion for something they do or have discovered in Japan has enriched their lives, A Passion for Japan overflows with struggles and joy, wisdom, warmth, and glimpses into worlds that few people have experienced."
