Book Description
Aunque puede parecer que a algunos occidentales no les resulte atractivo el perfil del hombre japonés, protagonizado tanto por la agresividad del samurai clásico como por el hombre de negocios contemporáneo casado con la empresa; en cambio, sí parece también ser un hecho real el profundo atractivo que sienten los varones occidentales hacia la mujer japonesa. El fenómeno del “japonismo” a finales del siglo XIX descubrió a Occidente la fascinante belleza de las geishas, protagonistas de los grabados ukiyoe de los maestros de la época Edo.Y así nos ha llegado hasta hoy la sugestiva belleza de la mujer japonesa envuelta en una neblina iridiscente, semiescondida en sus exquisitos kimonos, adornada de pomposos peinados y frágiles abanicos... Las preguntas que se hace el autor hoy son: ¿la mujer japonesa es realidad o mito?, ¿cuál es su perfil auténtico?, ¿dónde reside el tópico, la fantasía o la autenticidad de la mujer japonesa? En un estilo claro, interesante y vivo, enriquecido con experiencias personales insólitas de la sociedad japonesa actual, vamos descubriendo un esbozo del misterio del eterno femenino japonés, a través de la fascinante historia del País del Sol Naciente, que ha cautivado tantos corazones.

Book Description
Beginning in 1990, thousands of Spanish speakers emigrated to Japan. A Cultural History of Spanish Speakers in Japan focuses on the intellectuals, literature, translations, festivals, cultural associations, music (bolero, tropical music, and pop, including reggaeton), dance (flamenco, tango and salsa), radio, newspapers, magazines, libraries, and blogs produced in Spanish, in Japan, by Latin Americans and Spaniards who have lived in that country over the last three decades. Based on in-depth research in archives throughout the country as well as field work including several interviews, Japanese-speaking Mexican scholar Araceli Tinajero uncovers a transnational, contemporary cultural history that is not only important for today but for future generations.

Book Description
"Substantially the book that devotees of the director have been waiting for: a full-length critical work about Ozu's life, career and working methods, buttressed with reproductions of pages from his notebooks and shooting scripts, numerous quotes from co-workers and Japanese critics, a great many stills and an unusually detailed filmography."—Sight and Sound Yasujiro Ozu, the man whom his kinsmen consider the most Japanese for all film directors, had but one major subject, the Japanese family, and but one major theme, its dissolution. The Japanese family in dissolution figures in every one of his fifty-three films. In his later pictures, the whole world exists in one family, the characters are family members rather than members of a society, and the ends of the earth seem no more distant than the outside of the house.

Book Description
In his first book since the bestselling Fermat's Enigma, Simon Singh offers the first sweeping history of encryption, tracing its evolution and revealing the dramatic effects codes have had on wars, nations, and individual lives. From Mary, Queen of Scots, trapped by her own code, to the Navajo Code Talkers who helped the Allies win World War II, to the incredible (and incredibly simple) logisitical breakthrough that made Internet commerce secure, The Code Book tells the story of the most powerful intellectual weapon ever known: secrecy. Throughout the text are clear technical and mathematical explanations, and portraits of the remarkable personalities who wrote and broke the world's most difficult codes. Accessible, compelling, and remarkably far-reaching, this book will forever alter your view of history and what drives it. It will also make you wonder how private that e-mail you just sent really is.
