Japan Rising The Resurgence of Japanese Power And Purpose

"[T]he task Mr. Pyle...took on is...a worthwhile one, and the book he has written to fulfill it is outstanding....[I]t is an admirably balanced history too, able to see the Japanese point of view about the hypocrisy of the European and American imperialists, especially in the first half of the 20th century, who spoke of ideals, human rights and self-determination while preserving their own empires, exerting their own power and seeking to entrench racial inequality."Pyle, Kenneth B. is the author of 'Japan Rising The Resurgence of Japanese Power And Purpose', published 2007 under ISBN 9781586484170 and ISBN 1586484176.
