Excellent introduction to Korean social and artistic culture

The best book on Korean culture I have read.It is interesting and balanced in presentation with neither a foreigner's condensation nor a native's hyper national pride. The book reads well and draws the reader into the culture, history, values, customs, arts and people of Korea.
