It has won various awards, including the Robert H. Ferrell Book Prize, sponsored by the Society of Historians of American Foreign Relations, and the Yomiuri Yoshino Sakuzo Prize. Earlier this year, Stanford University Press published a volume edited by Professor Hasegawa, "The End of the Pacific War: Reappraisals."
