Features: This book was written by Professor Higashino Nakao Shudo of Asia University in Japan. However, when you open this "Comprehensive Verification," it becomes clear that documents from Japan's militaristic imperialist regime's policy of waging war of aggression against foreign countries are abundant in archives and libraries in Japan today. Yet, this professor has no intention of "verifying" them, not even willing to look through or examine them—what kind of "comprehensive verification" is this? If Professor Higashino Nakao is to conduct "comprehensive verification," he should have the courage to visit the sites of the Japanese army's massacres back then and listen to how the Chinese narrate this history. But the Higashino Nakao who claims to be conducting "comprehensive verification" lacks the spirit to face history and even dares not confront the piles of white bones of those killed by the Japanese army back then!
If Professor Higashino Nakao is to conduct "comprehensive verification," he should gather extensive historical materials and reveal the truth of history to the Japanese people, especially to the young generation in Japan. However, Professor Higashino Nakao's "comprehensive verification" merely uses a limited amount of available materials (mainly battlefield diaries) to make deductions and sophistical arguments, as if after some explanation, the history of Japan's foreign aggression and massacres back then no longer exists. What kind of "comprehensive verification" is this?
