Squash

I saw this word in a book. I just know it's a kind of sports similar to tennis. Would you help me know how to play it and which countries often play it? Thanks!

This game is played with two players or 4/teams of two. They use standard raquets with a soft ball, unlike in tennis in which they use the hard balls. This game is played by hitting the ball at a wall, instead of across the court, each team taking turns in hitting the ball.
