In 2002, President Bush spoke of the great Japanese scholar and statesman Inazo Nitobe, who envisioned a future of friendship between Japan and the United States. Writing before World War I, Nitobe presents a detailed account of Japan and the Japanese in terms easily understandable to western readers, emphasizing points of similarity rather than difference, often citing the work of western historians and philosophers in order to explain Japanese practices, always searching for common aims and goals. He deals with the effect of the past on the present, national characteristics, religious beliefs, morals and moral ideals, education, economic conditions, Japan as colonizer, relations between the United States and Japan, and America's influence in the Far East.
