    Abstract: In this highly personal account Joy Hendry relates her experiences of fieldwork in a Japanese town and reveals a fascinating cross-section of Japanese life. She sets out on a study of politeness but a variety of unpredictable events including a volcanic eruption, a suicide and her son's involvement with the family of a poweful local gangster, begin to alter the direction of her research. The book demonstrates the role of chance in the acquisition of anthropological knowledge and demonstrates how moments of insight can be embedded in everyday activity. An Anthropologist in Japan illuminates the education system, religious beliefs, politics, the family and the neighbourhood in modern Japan

    Abstract: "Norbert Elias is one of the few twentieth-century sociologists recognized as ranking among the truly great and classical social thinkers. Between the 1930s, when he wrote what are now acclaimed as modern classics, The Court Society and The Civilizing Process, and the 1980s, he developed a unique approach to social theory known as figurational or process sociology. Robert van Krieken's lucid book provides a concise, comprehensive critical guide which locates Elias's work clearly within both the historical development of sociology and contemporary debates, and identifies his contribution to the future directions of social theory and research."--Jacket
