This "Memoir" is not just a biography— * Shinjo's belief that war should be judged not only on "emotions and nationalism," but also on "analysis of numbers and reality." * However, the "cruelty of history" in that his "rational perspective" was not always valued in the military and national policies. * The conflict and frustration of a person who calmly analyzed behind the major decision of "war." * And the deep question of "what is the 'choice' of history" that makes the reader think, "If that analysis had been respected, history might have changed."
