Showa by Carol Gluck
The death of Emperor Hirohito marked the end of Japan's Showa era. This collection of original essays on Japan's history and culture in the 20th century provides a mix of American and Japanese perspectives on Showa. It explores the strengths of the Japanese economy, the issue of democracy and Japan's political culture, Japan's achievements in technology and the arts and its relationship with other nations and the United States.
"Showa is a useful collaborative American-Japanese exerciseJoint ventures can work." -- Daily Mainichi
