Great overview of Japan
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
Gary Allinson delivers an excellent summary of the post war history of Japan and the major trends that occurred following World War II. Overall it is a quick read with a focus on the societal and economic changes. He also touches on cultural and political changes but does not go into a great deal of detail. If you know very little about post war Japan this is a great place to start but not for the experienced reader in those areas.
