Learning to Bow: Inside the Heart of Japan by Bruce Feiler

4.0

Interesting book about the state of Japanese education. This will answer your questions about why their school system churns out consistently good students, and also points out some of the flaws that prevent such a system from being established in the US. Pretty interesting. (Some content warnings: pornography, prostitution, and other communal vices are discussed as they pertain to life as a teacher in Japan.)
