N2  - The Sea Power Centre - Australia (SPC-A)was very lucky to find Naoko Sajima, an expert on contemporary maritime Japan, to take the lead with this volume, and through her efforts Kyoichi Tachikawa agreed to provide the necessary historical discussion on the birth and evolution of Japanese sea power. Their work is something of a revelation and shows that much of our assumed knowledge of Japan is based more on our imposed values than on the historical and contemporary facts. The introduction, appendices and bibliography provide further background in support of the main works by Sajima and Tachikawa
