Brett L. Walker tackles key themes regarding Japan's relationships with its minorities, state and economic development, and the uses of science and medicine. The book begins by tracing the country's early history through archaeological remains, before proceeding to explore life in the imperial court, the rise of the samurai, civil conflict, encounters with Europe, and the advent of modernity and empire. Walker's vibrant and accessible new narrative then follows Japan's ascension from the ashes of World War II into the thriving nation of today.

Zero analysis just-the-story history
Revisado: 04-06-22
If you don’t know the basic facts of Japanese history, read this story.
If you think that history involves tackling questions such as how we know X, or whether we do actually know X with any confidence, or why X happened and what impact it had on the future …. find a proper history book.

Terrible audiobook of a good(ish) novel
Revisado: 02-23-22
Audio quality is awful. Voices suddenly drop away into the background and then come back 10 seconds later. Like an amateur recording. Also, the readers are so sloppy. One of them hasn’t noticed the book’s explicit instruction that Achilles is to be pronounced “Achille”. The other two readers apparently read the book a little more closely, so the character’s name is said wrong only in every third chapter.
Audible, do you have zero professional pride?
