日本早期的人口、疾病与土地（645-900）
(u. S.) William Wayne Farris
Based on tax registration and household registration, legal decrees, other original materials, and newly acquired Japanese documents, the author systematically and scientifically explains Japan's early population situation for the first time, including the role of diseases in the process of economic development. This work provides a comprehensive study of land reclamation, agricultural technology, and the conditions of rural settlements, and reinterprets the functions and nature of the legal system in a revised demographic and economic context. Farris's text is accompanied by several maps, population pyramids of five regions, and original maps and text translations of some tax and household registers. These documents further illuminate Japan's demographic and economic conditions during the three hundred years of the seventh, eighth, and ninth centuries.
