SUMMARY
"This is a fascinating analysis of the meaning of rice as a symbol of personal and particularly of social identity in Japanese culture."--Robert N. Bellah "Ohnuki-Tierney usefully explodes the notion of Japanese cultural homogeneity while explaining why the idea of homogeinity and distinctness, symbolized so vividly in Japanese rice, has come to play such a significant cultural role."--Robert N. Bellah, University of California, BerkeleyEmiko Ohnuki-Tierney is the author of 'Rice as Self: Japanese Identities through Time (Princeton Paperbacks)', published 1994 under ISBN 9780691021102 and ISBN 0691021104.
