Chapter 6 in Japan as –anything but– Number One, 1996, pp 99-123 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract No aspect of Japanese society has been singled out for more lavish praise (and less criticism) than the educational system. One of the best known expressions thereof was penned by Edwin O. Reischauer in his habitual “never be anything but wildly optimistic’‘ style.
