The Hollow Doll

The Hollow Doll

The Hollow Doll is a 1990 book written by William Bohnaker and published by Ballantine Books. [ [http://isbndb.com/d/book/the_hollow_doll.html The hollow doll ] ]

The book is a sociological examination of Japan in terms of its culture and how it affects the individual citizens. The book then goes into describing the "negative" aspects of Japanese society as a society that unlike "The West" which functions on logic, Japanese society functions with a formulaic society.

And the book thus points out how it has many deficiencies and economic, civil, and social inequities underneath the Polite, Hardworking, and Ceremonious veil of Modern Japan.
