Embellish everything: beadwork adds a touch of luxury to even the most everyday objects—and it’s stylish, easy to do, and inexpensive. Inexperienced beaders will learn all—from stringing on thread and wire to making fringes and using a simple loom—and eagerly begin one of the 45 wildly fabulous projects. Lampshades, frames, pillows, candleholders, and more, shown in 150 color photos, display the creative range of the craft. Every one looks magnificent.
Japanese Frames of Mind raises the question as to what Japanese psychology offers Western psychology, in light of research conducted by Japanese and American researchers. The chapters provide a wealth of new data related to Japanese child development, moral reasoning and narratives, schooling and family socialization, and adolescent experiences. By placing the Japanese evidence within the context of Western psychological theory and research, the book calls for a systematic reexamination of Western psychology as one psychology among many other ethnopsychologies.
