Try “Giving Up the Gun: Japan’s Reversion to the Sword” by Noel Perrin.
This is a very good book about Japan in the 1500-1900 time period. It chronicles the only time in history (that I know of) that a culture mastered a better form of warfare and then gave it up and reverted to an earlier, weaker form of warfare. I enjoyed the book, although the reviews on Amazon are pretty mixed, and I haven’t read anything else that supports the author’s premise, so I not sure how historically accurate the book is.
