"GETTING BOTH FEET WET: Experiences inside The JET Program" edited by 
David Chandler & David Kootnikoff
The true story, from both the gaijin and the Japanese side, of what it 
is like working for Japan's giant international exchange and teaching 
program. The new JET participants have just arrived in Japan. If you are 
interested in participating next year, now is the time to get 
information, and read this book now. See info at http://imcbook.net. JET 
participants are largely young, college educated, they come from many 
countries but most are from the major English speaking countries. Pay is 
excellent. Life is busy. Sometimes cultural differences cause problems.
