Crossing Over: Exploring Japanese Culture and Life Through English

This is an English conversation textbook for university students in Japan. The book is based on discussions of how Japanese culture and life have changed over the years. It covers a wide range of social and cultural topics that include various formats: interviews, consultations, debates, group discussions, and surveys. Grammar is given attention through actual errors Japanese students have made in their responses. The textbook is a refreshing change from other EFL/ESL textbooks that are sold in Japan.
