Japan Emerging: Premodern History to 1850

This was used as a textbook in my Japanese History class and, though there is a lot of great information in the book, it isn't as linear as an actual textbook. It is a book of essays written by different people so there was really no effort to make sure people and events were only talked about once like a normal history textbook. This redundancy means the reader has to skip and mentally delete a lot of repetitive information which can lead to a difficult and confusing read and hence a harder time retaining what you need to know for an exam.

Broad coverage. Very informative. Excellent.

College reading material, delivered as promised.

A good overview..IF.. you have some background knowledge of Japanese history. IF..you do, this will give historical perspective, other wise rent some movies.

I was required to get this book for school!

Great condition and good read. Very informative

This was bought for my daughter, as it is needed for her uni course.All I can say is it arrived quickly and wish her all the best for her future.

Ich würde sagen, dass das buch selbst nicht klein ist, viel Information hat und absolut nicht langweilig ist! Empfehlenswert.
