*CHOICE*
Masako Shibata's book, Japan and Germany under the U.S. Occupation,
is an excellent comparative analysis of post-war education reform
in the two countries. Shibata uses crucial findings from Japanese
resources and German newspapers of the era. Many historical facts
are misconceived by historians, but Shibata uses her linguistic
ability to establish her book as close to the essence of the true
history.
