Review

“Yang and his coeditors have produced a truly groundbreaking collection of 13 essays that represent the results of an important, long-term project by Chinese and Japanese historians to address contentious issues in the two countries' shared modern histories... First published simultaneously in Chinese and Japanese in 2006 and now available in a very felicitous English translation, these essays provide unique and comprehensive looks at the wide range of issues that have bedeviled relations between these two Asian neighbors.”―M. D. Ericson, Choice
