《日本历史之窗》通过展示太平洋两岸顶尖学者的原创研究和反思，报道了日本考古学和史前史的最新进展。这本649页的书分为五个部分：第一部分，背景，第二部分。种族、语言和文化：日本人的身份（三）。讨论从对日本植被史和前现代“考古学”的研究转向对日本在种族、语言和文化方面与大陆民族和文化的联系的研究。第三部分详细分析了日本考古研究的现状。这些文章被分组，以向读者提供通过考古学看到的日本历史-该部分被细分为旧石器时代，绳纹时代和弥生/古fun时期。第四部分侧重于类型学，两份报告都概述了日本考古学家制定他们的类型学类别的方式，与西方考古学家不同。陶器是主要的焦点。最后一部分详细介绍了日本为保护考古遗址而设计的复杂系统，以及围绕这些保护工作的问题。这本110页的日本考古术语表本身就是一项重要的学术贡献。
Windows on the Japanese Past reports the state of the art in the archaeology and prehistory of Japan by presenting both original research and reflections by leading scholars on both sides of the Pacific. The 649-page book is divided into five sections: Part I. BackgroundPart II. Race, Language, and Culture: Japanese IdentityPart III. Prehistory, Culture History, and SocietyPart IV. Typological Studies in Japanese ArchaeologyPart V. Japanese Cultural Resource ManagementThe discussions move from studies of the vegetational history of Japan and premodern "archaeology" to studies of Japan's link--in race, language, and culture--to continental peoples and cultures. The third section presents detailed analyses of current archaeological research in Japan. These articles are grouped to provide the reader with a history of Japan as seen through archaeology--the section is subdivided into the Paleolithic, Jomon, and Yayoi/Kofun periods. Section four focuses on typology, and both presentations outline the way in which Japanese archaeologists formulate their typological categories, as distinct from Western archaeologists. Pottery is the main focus. The final section details the intricate system that Japan has devised for preserving archaeological sites, as well as the problems surrounding those preservation efforts. The 110-page glossary of Japanese archaeological terms is itself an important scholarly contribution.
