I. While a survey of textbook examination projects in America shows three studies which deal with Japan and the peoples of Japanese descent in contemporary textbooks, the present study deals with textbooks which were published in the last half a century in order to determine whether the textbook treatment of the country and the peoples has moved toward a world point of view. II. Eighty-seven senior high school American history textbooks published in the years 1895 to 1950 were examined; and the analysis of their content was made in terms of the standards of judgment given in the "Model Plan for Textbook Analysis" which appear in Textbook Improvement and International Understanding by I. James Quillen. III. The results disclose that all major topics, mainly in the diplomatic history between America and Japan, are dealt with by a growing percentage of textbooks throughout the fifty-five years as well as with increasing adequacy within the textbooks, although there are certain important omissions. IV. The changes in the balance in content show that domestic Japan and her point of view, also the Japanese as residents and citizens of the United States, are introduced more and more. V. Throughout the years, the textbook content is largely objective and fair, as well as accurate. VI. It is concluded that while there are certain omissions, as well as an over-emphases in the textbooks printed after 1951 of the warlike phases of the history of American-Japanese relations, there is an increasing attempt to present facts about Japan and the Japanese objectively and accurately, which should contribute toward international understanding and peace. (The English original of this study is published as MicA 54-896).
