A collection of 46 essays that trace the course of democracy in Japan from 1868 to 1952.

Today, most American mothers work full time and children have much more free time and live in less secure urban environments. The amount of time spent attending school in Japan and the US is just one of the cultural attitudes that is examined in this book.

This volume looks at American and Japanese schools and analyzes how cultural attitudes can both promote and hinder education in each country. The author argues that American teachers try to encourage students to be creative, while Japanese counterparts are narrowly focused and efficient.
