kyburg13. The Pleasures of Japanese Cooking. Heihachi Tanaka and Betty A. Nichols.
These two books came out of the care package![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
caitlin sent - this one, copyrighted 1963 (and this is a 1979 reprint), really puts paid to the fact 'nobody knew about -blank-' before anime left it's mark on popular culture.
Etiquette regarding chopsticks, who pours the drinks and why - in a very unsuspecting little paperback book. Knowledge has been around a while - no excuses. And quit putting soy sauce on your rice!
14. Raising Adopted Children. Lois Ruskai Melina.
Coprighted 1988, a little less than the newest and shinest - it does take a different tone than the newer books do, one of 'adoption is NOT second-best,' but watch out for a culture that would like to tell you differently.
Whole sections on bonding and attachment. This isn't nearly the new and shiny concept I thought it was - which is encouraging, because all the centers publishing books on their methods are now publishing more than five or ten years worth of study and experience - that's reassuring.
This one? Kind of summarizes what I have already, is less frightening than most of the ones I've read before and is more AP-centric in general. Bedside book.
