Recensione

`exemplary clarity ... a very valuable book ... it fills a serious gap in the literature in English and will be invaluable to teachers and students of modern international relations.' Bulletin of the School of Oriental and African Studies

`Professor Beasley demonstrates his skill in assessing a wide variety of evidence and in formulating a crisp synthesis ... an admirably lucid account ... and essential reading for those concerned with the evolution of Japan since 1868 and with international relations in East and South-East Asia in the first half of the twentieth century.' Times Higher Education Supplement

`An impressively detailed, wide-ranging and lucid account of the evolution of Japanese imperialism.'Asian Affairs

`A careful, judicious, and well-organized synthesis ... There is no other book in English that provides what this one does, a compact and readable account of the history of Japanese imperialism. It will remain the standard single-volume work on the subject for some time to come.' Journal of Japanese Studies

`W. G. Beasley's fascinating, lucid, and brilliant account ... provides the best balanced explanation ever written about the complex factors that together pushed Japan to impose its power on its neighbours.' Journal of Asian Studies
