Herman Kahn - The emerging Japanese superstate: Challenge and response (1971)
Review
"For The Japanese Economy WWII was unquestionably a disaster of the first magnitude." - Kahn
This quote from Herman Kahn's book clearly sums up and emphasizes a book full of solid information. Whether for casual reading on Japan or a research paper, Kahn delivers strong, decisive opinions on the matter. I used it for a research paper on Japan's economy and found it extremely useful. Again, it is also a very interesting and well-worded peice of literature. I recommend it to all.
