TATSUNO, SHERIDAN M. - Created in Japan: From Imitators to World-Class Innovators

NY: Harper & Row / Ballinger Division, 1989. 0887303730. 1st Edition. First Printing. Hard Cover. ISBN: 0887303730. Quarter bound in publisher's black cloth over gray boards, silver lettering on spine. "This book, written by Tatsuno, a U.S. high-tech industry consultant and editor of a previous work on Japan's high-tech industry, The Technopolis Strategy (LJ 10/1/86), functions on at least three different levels: as a theoretical investigation of creativity, as a fascinating comparison of Eastern and Western cultural values, and as a basic explanation of why Japan is gradually outdistancing the U.S. in industrial technology. Tatsuno says that while Americans have been traditionally stronger in basic research and new ideas, the Japanese have shown greater creativity in recycling and refining ideas and also have made greater efforts than Americans to improve on their weaknesses. The book is filled with numerous examples of contemporary high-tech research and development in Japan, including in-depth chapters on high-definition television, computers, and semiconductors. Highly recommended." - Scott Wright. Both the volume and the unclipped dust jacket are in perfect, pristine condition; unread, unmarked, tight, square, and clean.
