Today, with Japan holding second place in global wealth and
continuing to expand her economy, the focus is all too readily
concentrated on the processes of wealth creation, as well as
economic and financial management - both domestically and
internationally. What is often missing in the analysis is an
understanding of the origins of Japan's rise to her superstate
position. In this book (with a new introduction to the paperback
edition), first published in 1951 and long out of print, W.G.
Beasley provides a detailed analysis of the Great Britain-Japan
relationship in the crucial years leading to the Meiji Restoration
of 1868, when Britain was the ultimate "wealth and strength" model,
thus providing Japan with both the goals and parameters of her
ambitions as world player after two centuries of isolation.
