Bruce J. Friedman's new book, Tokyo Woes: The Metaphysical Decline of a Great City, offers a detailed and insightful exploration of the spiritual and metaphysical decline of one of the world's great cities. Friedman takes readers on a tour of Tokyo's spiritual landscape, from the Budokan, Japan's most famous martial arts arena, to the Shinto Shrine at downtown Yoyogi Park, to the neon-lit Kabuki district. Friedman shows how Tokyo's once-vibrant spiritual life has been replaced by a sterile, materialistic culture. Friedman offers readers a unique and insightful perspective on the city and its people, and provides a valuable resource for anyone interested in understanding the spiritual decline of one of the world's great cities.; 8vo; 187 pages; Signed by Author.
