Prologue: Structure of the ethical argument -- A comet, a tsunami, a cloud: the drama of Japan-United States relations, 1853{u2013}1941 -- The ballet of blood: the final struggles between Japan and the United States: Iwo Jima and Okinawa -- Deus ex machina: Hirohito intervenes to demand surrender -- Truman decides -- The crucible of conscience: five judgments on Hiroshima.
"Linking his study with two contemporary films on Iwo Jima, the author illustrates how the 1940s were an era of costly triumph that can still inspire national pride in American citizens. Unique in concept and approach, this volume will have relevance to scholars interested in both historical and contemporary politics, US{u2013}Japan relations as well as foreign policy and the ethics of warfare."-- Publisher.
