500    Translation of: Upheaval. Turning points for nations in 
       crisis. 
504    Includes bibliography (pages 491-[503]) and index. 
520    Diamond compares how six countries have survived recent 
       upheavals -- ranging from the forced opening of Japan by 
       U.S. Commodore Perry's fleet, to the Soviet Union's attack
       on Finland, to a murderous coup or countercoup in Chile 
       and Indonesia, to the transformations of Germany and 
       Austria after World War Two. Because Diamond has lived and
       spoken the language in five of these six countries, he can
       present gut-wrenching histories experienced firsthand. 
       These nations coped, to varying degrees, through 
       mechanisms such as acknowledgment of responsibility, 
       painfully honest self-appraisal, and learning from models 
       of other nations. Looking to the future, Diamond examines 
       whether the United States, Japan, and the whole world are 
       successfully coping with the grave crises they currently 
       face. Can we learn from lessons of the past?
