Description

Exactly 50 years ago the dropping of the atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki left Japan defeated and in ashes. Today it has risen miraculo be one of the world's two economic megapowers and is demanding a role as a political great power. The story of Japan's phoenix-like rise has often bem told, but the economic culture of the country's mega-businesses is still a mystery, and so are the powerful ties between businessmen, bureaucrats and politicians, the 'unholy trinity' of Japan Inc.Kevin Rafferty, who has spent 25 years living and working in Asia, has been granted privileged access to the powerhouses of Japan's economic mirade and has talked freely to the key figures, including grand opera singer Yoh Kurosawa of the Industrial Bank of Japan, Hampstead-born and Harvard- educated Minoru Makihara of Mitsubishi Corporation, shogi master Fumio Sato of Toshiba and the Toyoda car-making brothers, Shoichiro and Tatsuro, perhaps the most powerful men in Japanese industry. In a country where open and vigorous argument is often avoided, these men talk frankly about their achievements and the problems ahead.
