What was the 'Nanking Massacre', then? For reexamining the fact of the 'Nanking Massacre', we have started the following legal approach. Namely, we have tried to treat the so-called 'Nanking Massacre' as a murder case. Also, we have tried to precisely examine whether the crime had been proved or not and objectively verify the fact, using a method based on the Criminal Procedure Act, in view that the Prosecution has responsibility to adduce evidences to show the committed crimes. In other words, our objective is not to prove that there was no 'Nanking Massacre', but to specify the fact that the testimonies, which claim that there was the 'Nanking Massacre', are not substantiated at all. As a result of the examination, the motive of the Japanese Army, the sum of these corpses and the cause of death have not been proved. Of course, there have not been some regrettable facts of criminal acts of murders and rapes which have been committed by the Japanese Army. However, these sporadic criminal acts committed during the fierce battles, are far from the so-called 'systematic and deliberate large scale massacre' of 300,000. This book is bilingual in English and Japanese.

什么是"南京大屠杀"? 为了检测"南京大屠杀"的真相, 我们开始用后来合法的方法. 也就是, 我们试着将所谓的'南京大屠杀"作为一个谋杀的案子来对待. 同时,我们用一种基于犯罪程序法令的方法, 精确地验证这场罪恶是否被证实以及客观地核实真相, 期待起诉中所引用的证据能负责地说明犯罪的成立.换而言之,我们的目的不在于证实南京大屠杀不存在, 而是说明那些指控南京大屠杀的证词是一点都不真实. 检验的结果是, 日本军队的(发动战争的)动机, 死亡的总数以及死因都没有被证实(是真实的). 当然, 也存在一些由日本军队犯下的杀人和强奸的罪案. 但是,这些零星的罪案发生在激烈的战斗中, 根本不是所谓的"有组织有预谋的大规模"的300000(死者).这本书用英,日两文书写。
