My Personal Experience at the Tokyo Trial

Mei Ru'ao was the Chinese judge at the Tokyo Trial after the end of World War II. In the 1980s, his son discovered Mei's diary and his personal account of court records and his observations. Shanghai Jiao Tong University Press published the valuable history and Palgrave Macmillan will publish it in English.

"I am not revanchist, but I believe forgetting about the past miseries will probably lead to future disasters," says Mei.
