"Professor Ikeo provides new insights into Japanese economics andeconomy, and links them with international milieux by elaboratinglittle-known Japanese contributions to the development of generalequilibrium theory, Keynesian economics, and modern and early moderneconomic ideas.The book is best suitable for postgraduates and scholars, as well asgeneral readers, who are eager to know Japanese competency inintellectual and technological areas." — Atsushi Komine, Professor, Faculty of Economics, Ryukoku University,Japan
"This book explains how Japanese economists, despite their linguistic and physical distance from the Western world where economic science first flourished, were able quickly to absorb modern economic theory and made original contributions from early in the 20th century. The author skillfully reveals that mathematical economics and econometrics in Japan have a longer history than was previously believed and have had a more profound impact than was previously thought on the development of modern economics both inside and outside Japan." — Sangbec Lee, Assistant Professor, Faculty of International Studies, Meiji Gakuin University, Japan
"This book examines the integration of Japanese economic theorists into global networks throughout the 20th century, concentrating mainly on the early 20th century, the 1930s, and the first decades after World War II. The book is a collection of updated essays that Ikeo has written over the last 15 years." - Laura HEIN, Northwestern University
"...this book is surely a worthwhile and pioneering beginning as far as the history of Japanese economic science is concerned." - M. Ali Khan, Johns Hopkins University, Journal of the History of Economic Thought

'The book is the fullest treatment so far of Kennan's diplomatic career and his subsequent commentary on foreign policy ... a superb book that fills in many missing details on a story whose outline is already known ... a richly detailed account of the work of an important figure. Mayers has amassed voluminous material, organized it brilliantly, written it beautifully, and offered scores of profound insights.'

Home Fire by Kamila Shamsie pulls no punches; recasting the Greek tragedy Antigone in a contemporary mix of Isis, rendition and torture seen through a family lens ... The charge is quickly lit and the novel builds to an unbearably powerful ending

Thinking about Oral History

In this innovative, eloquently written, and generally convincing book, Jensen sets out to show that Weimar-era discourses about sports shed new light on a range of major problems, from Germans' responses to the lost war and Versailles Treaty to conflicts over the demise of established patriarchal gender roles and the pre-war cultural pre-eminence of the educated bourgeoisie (Bildungsbuergertum) ... Jensen's exceptional skill at weaving different genres of
sources into his narrative and his beautiful writing make the book a joy to read.
