The history of modern Japanese education, 1872-1890

"The History of Modern Japanese Education is the first comprehensive account in English of the construction of a national school system in Japan, as outlined in the 1872 document, the Gakusei. Covering the entire spectrum of developments between 1872 and 1890, this work traces outstanding contributions to Japan's national school system made by individuals from Japan, America, and Europe." "Unique in its analysis of the transition from feudalism to modernism, as well as its examination of the initial leadership of modern Japan by samurai educated during the feudal era, The History of Modern Japanese Education is divided into three parts tracing decades of change."--BOOK JACKET.
