Descripción
210 pages. Footnotes. Selected bibliography. Index. "Examines the significance and extent of Japan's policy in hiring foreign experts; the changing emphasis from more general advisers to specialists; the regulatory machinery developed to deal with the sometimes recalcitrant Europeans and Americans; the image these employees had of their own value; and their worth in the eyes of their Japanese employers. Adds an important dimension to both the understanding of Japanese history and the process of planned modernization. No other specialist outside of Japan has attempted sucha comprehensive study to date." - from dust jacket. Book clean, bright and unmarked with negligible wear. Light wear to dust jacket.
