Whether you're in Japan for business or pleasure, spend a few hours with Etiquette Guide to Japan - not only will you save yourself a world of embarrassment, you'll find the answers to a plethora of puzzling protocols: Why is no one using their phone on the train? ; Why is half the population wearing masks? ; Why do my Japanses colleagues still use a fax machine? From name cards, bowing, and bathrooms to the latest in mobile phone manners and contemporary workplace etiquette, this revised and updated guide to Japanese cultural expectations will ensure a farewell to faux pas both inside and outside the office. -- from back cover.
