Reviews

'The organization and brisk style should extend the appeal of the book beyond historians to a wide range of students in social science courses.' The Times Educational Supplement


1853 saw the end of Japan's self-imposed isolation from the rest of the world. Hunter concentrates on the following 100 years' development - political, social and economic changes and the influence of industrialization - but places that period within the context of Japan's history before and after. An in-depth study, of interest to readers already acquainted with Japanese history. (Kirkus UK)
