If you are fascinated by Japan and its culture and want to unlock its secrets, the book by the European author Héctor García, who was captivated by the Land of the Rising Sun and dedicated his life to it, will prove invaluable. With humor and a fresh perspective, the co-creator of Ikigai (Patakis Publishers, 2017) reinvents the travel guide for the digital age, including chapters that both explore elements of traditional Japanese culture-such as geishas, Shinto, Confucianism, and the tea ceremony-and offer an insightful perspective on everyday life. The book explains Japanese symbols and daily practices while also following pop culture and contemporary urban subcultures. It is an inspired, informative, and modern guide that highlights the originality and creativity of the Japanese, while deconstructing Western myths and stereotypes about them. "A delightful journey into contemporary Japanese culture, through the eyes of a curious Spaniard who is truly 'obsessed' with Japan." - Lonely Planet "García's book is one of the most witty, entertaining, and at the same time accurate descriptions of contemporary Japanese culture ever written. I wholeheartedly recommend it!" - Joicy Ito, Director of the Chiba Institute of Technology
