Description:

A comprehensive study of changing political thought during the Tokugawa period, the book traces the philosophical roots of Japanese modernization.

He shows how the new schools of thought created an intellectual climate in which the ideas and practices of modernization could thrive.Originally published in 1989.The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press.
