"This book sets out to explain how Japanese companies operate and how company activities affect the Japanese work force and general public. The author has studied Japanese business life both as an academic researcher and as an investment banker. His combination of specialized and practical knowledge has enabled him to produce a volume that is clearly written as well as insightful. Clark's major conclusion is that the unique features of Japanese company life stem from particular features of industrial organization in Japan. Highly recommended for general readers as well as specialists."?Library Journal
