Reviews

`A thoughtfully detailed book, it's worth the time to read and re-read.' H- Japan `This book provides a good guide of change in economic behaviours of countries. Although it challenges the less financailly astute reader, it makes more sense upon each reading. It is well-documented. The authro explicitly shows a warmth for people's daily lives as the basis of econoic systems.' H-Japan `Professor Dore has written a thoughtful and provocative book nn how global capitalism may evolve. Whether or not you agree with him - and many economists and CEOs will not - if you are interested in the future of the world economy, you should read this book.' Jeffrey E. Garten, Dean, Yale School of Management


Insightful. Financial Adviser Interesting insights ... Dore has written a fascinating book on an important subject. There are so many middle-of-the-road books on the assumed merits of the Anglo-American model that it is indeed welcome, necessary and timely to see the other case made. The book deserves many readers, and they will be rewarded by highly stimulating and thought-provoking ideas and interpretations ... were it not for his commitment and involvement, we might have missed some of the most remarkable scholarship on Japan in recent decades.

Whether or not you agree with him - and many economists and CEOs will not - if you are interested in the future of the world economy, you should read this book. Jeffrey E.
