520    "The Wars for Asia, 1911-1949 shows that the Western 
       treatment of World War II, the Second Sino-Japanese War, 
       and the Chinese Civil War as separate events misrepresents
       their overlapping connections and causes. The long Chinese
       Civil War precipitated a long regional war between China 
       and Japan that went global in 1941 when the Chinese found 
       themselves fighting a civil war within a regional war 
       within an overarching global war. The global war that 
       consumed Western attentions resulted from Japan's 
       peripheral strategy to cut foreign aid to China by 
       attacking Pearl Harbor and Western interests throughout 
       the Pacific on December 7-8, 1941. S.C.M. Paine emphasizes
       the fears and ambitions of Japan, China, and Russia, and 
       the pivotal decisions that set them on a collision course 
       in the 1920s and 1930s. The resulting wars - the Chinese 
       Civil War (1911-1949), the Second Sino-Japanese War (1931-
       1945), and World War II (1939-1945) - together yielded a 
       viscerally anti-Japanese and unified Communist China, the 
       still-angry rising power of the early twenty-first 
       century. While these events are history in the West, they 
       live on in Japan and especially China"--|cProvided by
