I generally use this as a source book for ancient clay, metal, and oil works. But the entirety of this book has taught me much more than I intended. If you love the culture, GET THIS BOOK!

intermediate level sourcebook with lots of basic topics in chronological order. suitable for beginners and lay reader. covering very useful information from an authority who lived in early 20th century so one can simply understand the approach of the time.

Reviewed in Italy on October 24, 2013

mi spiace per la preistoria trattata in sole 20 pagine. Comunque, forse, è meglio così: il modo in cui sono trattati i periodi jomon e yayoi risente molto delle scoperte degli ultimi 50 anni, visto che il libro è riedizione di un testo del 1976.
Consegna impeccabile sia per confezione che per tempi (in anticipo di due giorni).
