Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The book explores Japan's unique stance during World War Two, particularly its treatment of the 40,000 Jews under its occupation, contrasting sharply with the actions of its Axis partners, Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy. It delves into the reasons behind Japan's refusal to comply with German demands to persecute the Jewish population, highlighting the complexities of moral choices in wartime and Japan's relatively humane approach amidst widespread atrocities.
