This important book . . . Magisterial'Max Hastings, The Sunday Times
Every so often, a new work emerges of such immense scholarship and weight that it really does add a significant difference to our understanding of the Second World War and its consequences. Judgement in Tokyo is one such, a monumental work in both scale and detail, beautifully constructed and written, leaving the reader not only moved but disturbed as well.James Holland, The Sunday Telegraph
A work of singular importance – balanced, original, human, accessible, and riveting. It is of huge relevance to our times.Philippe Sands, author of East-West Street
Magisterial . . . A well-crafted, warts-and-all account from which almost no one emerges unscathed.Financial Times
