评分才看到麦克阿瑟治理时期,先记两笔。 第一次看关于日本的书,终于弄明白了很多年来都很迷惑的织田信长/丰臣秀吉/德川家康到底谁是开国一代的问题。织田信长结束了战国时代,但是拒绝天皇册封其为征夷大将军,试图完全自立。他的家臣秀吉凭借个人能力在他死后掌握大权,他试图让...

Looks at many contemporary concerns and issues in Japan - exploring its history, economy, politics, and culture
Examines what it means to call Japan a 'modern' society, and what 'modern' has meant to the Japanese
Debunks many myths, for example explaining how Japan was never completely isolated from the outside world: even during the long period of so-called sakoku (isolationism, 1601-1853)
Examines the continuity between pre-Pacific War Japan, and post-war Japan
Japan is arguably today's most successful industrial economy, combining almost unprecedented affluence with social stability and apparent harmony. Japanese goods and cultural products are consumed all over the world, ranging from animated movies and computer games all the way through to cars, semiconductors, and management techniques. In many ways, Japan is an icon of the modern world, and yet it remains something of an enigma to many, who see it as a confusing montage of the alien and the familiar, the ancient and modern. The aim of this Very Short Introduction is to explode the myths and explore the reality of modern Japan - by taking a concise look at its history, economy, politics, and culture.
Readership: Anyone with an interest in modern Japan, including tourists, policymakers, business people, students, and academics. The book is a quick way to get up to speed on debates on modern Japan without having to tackle a lot of specialist literature.
If modern technology is allowed to rule over everything, what is to become of the spirit that makes us human? Emperor Hirohito called on them to ‘endure the unendurable and bear the unbearable’.

评分实在太概括了,同时因为注释少很难估计事实和评论的可靠度
