Japanese Images of Nature: Cultural Perspectives

By Arne Kalland and Pamela J. Asquith

Documents the great diversity in how people perceive their natural environment and how they come to terms with nature, be it through brute force, rituals or idealization. The main message of the book is that 'nature' and the 'natural' are concepts very much conditioned by their context.
