Making Sense of Japanese is the fruit of one foolhardy American's thirty-year struggle to learn and teach the Language of the Infinite. Previously known as Gone Fishin', this book has brought Jay Rubin more feedback than any of his literary translations or scholarly tomes, "even if," he says, "you discount the hate mail from spin-casters and the stray gill-netter."
To convey his conviction that "the Japanese language is not vague," Rubin has dared to explain how some of the most challenging Japanese grammatical forms work in terms of everyday English. Reached recently at a recuperative center in the hills north of Kyoto, Rubin declared, "I'm still pretty sure that Japanese is not vague. Or at least, it's not as vague as it used to be. Probably."
The notorious "subjectless sentence" of Japanese comes under close scrutiny in Part One. A sentence can't be a sentence without a subject, so even in cases where the subject seems to be lost or hiding, the author provides the tools to help you find it. Some attention is paid as well to the rest of the sentence, known technically to grammarians as "the rest of the sentence."
Part Two tackles a number of expressions that have baffled students of Japanese over the decades, and concludes with Rubin's patented technique of analyzing upside-down Japanese sentences right-side up, which, he claims, is "far more restful" than the traditional way, inside-out.
"The scholar," according to the great Japanese novelist Soseki Natsume, is "one who specializes in making the comprehensible incomprehensible." Despite his best scholarly efforts, Rubin seems to have done just the opposite.
Previously published in the Power Japanese series under the same title and originally as Gone Fishin' in the same series.

The book does not cover a wide area of subjects and ventures too often on ramblings that adds nothing to the book.
Do not buy this book if you want to learn japanese.

Wonderful!

I have been learning Japanese for 50 years. I have translated books and scientific papers in both directions. In short, I know a lot about Japanese, but I still learned a few things from this. I love the author's style, and his examples. Especially the sign he bought a department store and hung in his office, saying:
Honjitsu wa yasumasete itadakimasu
("We are out of the office today")
Read the book and you will see what that's all about.

Small book with chunky content. Don't expect to sit down and plow through everything, because this book will make you stop and think about a lot of things. It's not redundant too, it's just very fun and has a good flow, some great stories and examples too. It's not just some study book, being more akin to having a long conversation with someone who has mastered information you will eventually need to know if you wanna learn Japanese.
ありがとございます。

Clear, interesting, and funny.

Fantastic. Really cleared up my understanding on a few points (ga and wa/zero pronouns/passive verbs etc), whereas I’ve been confused on a number of things in my language classes. Humour combined with theory work great (really sinks in).

Muy buen libro, trata solo de gramática no incluye nada de kanjis, usa mucho slang para explicar (es un libro en inglés)
