This work examines the critical postwar period of 1945-1952, during which years two formidable and recent Pacific enemies-the victorious U.S. and the vanquished Japan-worked out the parameters of their postwar relationship. The author here focuses on one of the most articulate and insightful (yet overlooked) segments of American media: the business press. This well researched and readable volume discusses the important international relationship as it evolved during a crucial period in recent world history.
