Having made wide use of the HoC in China - an excellent work - I am sorely disappointed with the volume on Japan. It lacks a thorough review of so many areas. Perhaps I was spoiled by the excellent work on the China edition which covered history, art, science, culture - the whole broad gambit. One could do better with an general history of Christianity in Japan. The bibliographies were terrible - listing only the most basic works, if that. The sections on Protestantism is Japan were perhaps better. The area of the Catholic missions, the whole early history are, in my estimation, poor. Not worth the money I spent on the work. Insufficient at best.
