In the late Nineteenth-century, the Japanese embarked on a program
of westernization in the hope of building a strong and modern
nation. Science, technology and medicine played an important part,
showing European nations that Japan was a world power worthy of
respect. It has been acknowledged that state policy was important
in the development of industries but how well-organized was the
state and how close were government-business relations? The book
seeks to answer these questions and others. The first part deals
with the role of science and medicine in creating a healthy nation.
The second part of the book is devoted to examining the role of
technology, and business-state relations in building a modern
nation.
