Review

Scholars with an interest in the onset and consequences of modernity in Japan will find much in this important new work by Stefan Tanaka to stimulate and challenge them. (Daniel Botsman Journal of Asian Studies )

Review

Tanaka's analysis and indeed his main conclusions are of a piece with some of the most interesting recent work on South Asia and the Middle East--work that occupies the cutting edge of historical research on the modern non-Western world, with important implications not only for area studies of those regions but generally for world history and for our understanding of modernity as a universal phenomenon. New Times in Modern Japan will be noticed and read with interest not only by scholars in the field of Japanese studies but much more widely. (Partha Chatterjee, author of "A Possible India" )
