Japanese civilization

Here is a unique book about the greatest and most exotic nation of the world - Japanese. In the 20th century, Russia fought twice with Japan, but this country is now remaining for us the mystery of the East. Meanwhile, more and more Russian citizens are visited by Japan for business purposes, then as tourists. To open Japan for you, to prepare for a meeting with another, little similar to our civilization is the goal of this book.
The study covers a huge period of time from the emergence of Japanese statehood to the collapse of imperial Japan in 1945. The author - the world -famous Japanese historian of the 20th century Hani Gorod - departs from the official interpretation of events in Japanese historical science, offers its periodization of Japanese history and nominates a number of bold hypotheses.
The book withstood more than a dozen reprints in the Land of the Rising Sun and was repeatedly published abroad. In modern Russia, the book in the new edition is published for the first time. A large number of unique illustrations make the book a magnificent gift
