Book Description
The furniture of Korea is practically unique among the furniture traditions of the world. It is part of a craft that goes back well over a millennium, keeping alive a tradition of alluring and mystical designs that has remained relatively unchanged from at least the seventeenth century. It is this tradition that has made Korean furniture one of the most sought-after styles of exotic furniture by antique dealers and collectors worldwide. Immediately recognizable as Korean, this unique art was only "discovered" by the West in the late 1940s and 1950s. What first captured the attention and recognition of the world was the furniture's elegant yet robust combination of simplicity and beauty. As in Japan, the primary type of Korean furniture is the chest. It exemplifies the Korean affection for wood and wood grain patterns, using a rather limited range of woods in vigorous and decorative ways. Iron metalwork is functional or decorative or both, while most brass metalwork is largely decorative and as attractive as the woodworking itself. Shelves, tables, trays, desks, beds, and small boxes are also popular. This grand overview of one of the world's great furniture traditions will delight collectors, decorators, and anyone with an interest in the styles of Asian craftsmanship.

Book Description
Japan was the only non-Western nation to industrialize before 1900 and its leap into the modern era has stimulated vigorous debates among historians and social scientists. In an innovative discussion that posits the importance of physical well-being as a key indicator of living standards, Susan B. Hanley considers daily life in the three centuries leading up to the modern era in Japan. She concludes that people lived much better than has been previously understood—at levels equal or superior to their Western contemporaries. She goes on to illustrate how this high level of physical well-being had important consequences for Japan's ability to industrialize rapidly and for the comparatively smooth transition to a modern, industrial society. While others have used income levels to conclude that the Japanese household was relatively poor in those centuries, Hanley examines the material culture—food, sanitation, housing, and transportation. How did ordinary people conserve the limited resources available in this small island country? What foods made up the daily diet and how were they prepared? How were human wastes disposed of? How long did people live? Hanley answers all these questions and more in an accessible style and with frequent comparisons with Western lifestyles. Her methods allow for cross-cultural comparisons between Japan and the West as well as Japan and the rest of Asia. They will be useful to anyone interested in the effects of modernization on daily life.
