Memorizing kanji-Japanese written characters-and their thousands of shapes, sounds, and meanings can drive you . . . crazy. But Crazy for Kanji is here to put the craze back in crazy, putting kanji in context-where they come from, why they look like they do, how to tell "husband" from "prisoner," where to find kanji in Wales, and how to learn kanji faster. Scattered throughout are nearly 100 large-type "exhibits" of kanji madness, including puzzles and even kanji sudoku!
