The Xenophobe's Guide to the Japanese

I was given a book on the Japanese for Christmas this year. It is called 'Xenophobe's guide to the Japanese' and it is part of the xenophobe's series.
The book talks about the Japanese culture from a variety of perspectives and discusses a wide range of topics, such as education, lack of street names and the language. It gives a comic introduction to the culture and certainly makes the reader intrigued to learn more about the culture. I am definitely going to get my hands on other books of the series and learn about other countries!
Here is the link for the series if anyone is interested in knowing more:
