Chapter 1 in Japan as –anything but– Number One, 1996, pp 11-27 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Welcome to the most extraordinary place on Earth, where people are better and things nicer than anywhere else. To explore it, I will leave you in good hands. You will be guided by eminent ambassadors, academics, business consultants, publicists and authors. Admittedly, all of them are foreign. But they claim special insight into things Japanese.
