"This is a major historical work that, in the field of Japanese imperialism, will set a standard for careful and comprehensive analysis. "The Abacus and the Sword" is the handiwork of a master historian."--Mark R. Peattie, author of "Nan'yo: The Rise and Fall of the Japanese in Micronesia, 1885-1945" "This book . . . deserves a wide readership, especially among East Asia history specialists, for it represents difficult and complex scholarship at its best. . . .

This book is . . . well worth reading, not only for East Asian specialists but for anyone fascinated by the mysteries of history." Hilary Conroy, American Academy of Political Science
