{"product_id":"9783838213989","title":"Hiroshima-75: Nuclear Issues in Global Contexts (Auflage)","description":"\u003cp\u003e75 years after the United States dropped the world's first atomic bombs on the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, a group of international scholars offers new perspectives on this event and the history, development, and portrayal of the utilization of atomic energy: in military and civilian industries, civil nuclear power, literature and film, and the contemporary world. What lessons have we learned since the end of the Second World War? Can we avoid disasters such as Chernobyl and Fukushima? Have we learned to live with man-made nuclear power in the 21st century? Aya Fujiwara is Director of the Prince Takamado Japan Centre and Lecturer of History and Classics at the University of Alberta. David R. Marples is Distinguished University Professor at the University of Alberta and has authored twenty books over his career, including three on the Chernobyl disaster. \"Fujiwara and Marples have done a wonderful job to produce a united book on such a diverse range of topics related to 'Hiroshima'. I sincerely hope that they will not see the 75th anniversary as the end of the work that has been done by them and the contributors, but, rather, will look to expand the team and continue to produce more in the future. I further hope that those in Japanese Studies will add this book to the list of required reading for their students and that they will read all of the chapters, not just those more closely related to their studies of Japan. Hiroshima-75 deals with a subject of which we must all have knowledge and understanding. The alternative is that we are ignorant. This not only disrespects those who died in the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and subsequently, but also allows the 'Doomsday Clock' to tick closer to midnight through our ignorance and lack of action.\" Christopher Hood, electronic journal of contemporary japanese studies\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ibidem","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45997060948047,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":1610.0,"currency_code":"TWD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.tw\/products\/9783838213989","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Taiwan","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
