Excerpt from Japan Advancing Whither? This present text-book on Japan has not been compiled with the hope that it may bring to light new facts. So far as these go, it need not have been written. It does, however, pretend to present old facts in a new form, and it is to be hoped that this has been done in a way which will make the task of conducting classes comparatively simple. For example, the chapter on religions, so far as the information given in it goes, is quite unnecessary, and yet it is, so far as the Editor knows, the only text-book which brings in a description of the religions at a time when their relation to the subject as a whole is evident - i.e., at the psychological moment. This endeavor to bring out the facts in an order which corresponds to that in which we naturally learn things is the reason for the publication of this new text-book. The shortness of time in which it has had to be prepared has made it impossible to secure as the author one who knows the land intimately.
