In the West, a bath is a place one goes to cleanse the body. In Japan, one goes there to cleanse the soul. Bathing in Japan is about much more than cleanliness: it is about family and community. It is about being alone and contemplative, time to watch the moon rise above the garden. Along with sixty full-color illustrations of the light and airy baths themselves, The Japanese Bath, delves into the aesthetic of bathing Japanese style and the innate beauty of the steps surrounding the process. The authors explain how to create a Japanese bath in your own home. A Zen meditation, the Japanese bath, indeed, cleanses the soul, and one emerges refreshed, renewed, and serene.

At this time of writing, The Mobi The Japanese Bath has garnered 8 customer reviews with rating of 5 out of 5 stars. Not a bad score at all as if you round it off, it’s actually a perfect TEN already. From the looks of that rating, we can say the Mobi is Good TO READ!

A very nice book, lots of very well-composed photos. It's important to read the text, as modern plumbing and the adoption of some Western habits- to a point- have had an impact, even in Japanese homes. Many photos were taken in California, so those photos are of interpretations of Japanese baths, rather than actual bathrooms in Japan, though there are lots of photos of those, too. Naturally very, very few people can afford some of the more "high-end" bathrooms, but it does give a sampling of what can be done, providing price (and space) are not limitations. Overall the net value is to see how a relaxed environment can be achieved, using muted colors and lighting, simple designs, and more natural, even semi-rustic materials where appropriate. Regrettably the modern use of large areas of glass tends to undo the original subdued effect but this too is made clear (no pun intended) when one sees the result, and compares such open (and bright) lighting to the older approach. I also highly recommend a couple of other books, "A Japanese Touch For Your Home" -lots of very excellent photos of modern homes- and "Japanese Homes and Their Surroundings", the latter being a Dover reprint of a book written in the 1880's, and so giving a truly authentic representation of the styles of old Japan, uninfluenced by Western concepts.
