Sheathing The Sword: The Demilitarisation of Japan (1987) By Meirion & Susie Harries
 
Examining how Japan was transformed by war and defeat, this book explains how and why the Japanese were persuaded into making war, how they reacted to defeat and the Allied occupation, and how they have gained economic and political strength in recent years.
 
A critical, often controversial, study of how the face of Japan was changed by war and defeat, how the American occupation forces under General Douglas MacArthur made those changes, and how Japan and America have coped with each other since Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
