Reviews
"Makes a contribution to local history through the author s enlightening references to the political and economic factors peculiar to the Nagoya region, factors that contributed to Gotô s rise as a local civic leader, and which served as a background to the events of 1971-2. The author s extensive references to personal interviews and memoirs by his friends and associates are especially insightful in drawing a portrait of a man very much centered in the community in which he lived almost his entire life. It deserves to be read, and undoubtedly will be, for its comprehensive treatment of the factors behind ping-ping diplomacy." - Stephen J. Roddy, Associate Professor, University of San Francisco
"Well-researched, well-framed analytically, and highly original. Sheds important new light on the how today's complex yet fatefully important US-Japan-China triangle came to be." - Kent Calder,Director, Reischauer Center for East Asian Studies,SAIS/Johns Hopkins University
