excerpt from December 2020 obituary for Dr. Ezra Vogel (90), published by the Japan Times online.
At the age of 89, he published "China and Japan: Facing History" (2019), which reviews the history of political and cultural ties between the two nations over 1,500 years. Vogel hoped that the book would offer an accurate portrayal of how the two countries learned from each other over the centuries, but also serve to encourage the Chinese and Japanese leaders to forge a more constructive relationship going forward.
