Book description: Ashgate Publishing Co., 2000. Hardbound. New Book. Hardbound. Uyehara, an independent consultant in Washington, DC on US-Japanese relations, was involved in the negotiations for the 1988 S&T agreement he critiques in the present lengthy and thoroughly researched and documented study (comparative, side-by-side versions of the treaty appear in an appendix). The text proceeds chronologically, giving a blow-by-blow account of the meetings and negotiations that led to the agreement, the passive role he believes was allotted to the Japanese participants, and the flaws he perceived within the process. He concludes with recommendations he pessimistically feels "that US or Japanese officials will not have the psychological and real time leeway" to read. (©2001 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR)
