Industry Reviews
The first six essays concentrate on discussing the definition of "achievement" in sociological and economic terms, particularly its relationship to creativity and innovation. The next six essays compare Britain and Japan as case studies, including elements in Britain such as: discipline, individualism, Protestantism. The advent of the printing press is also discussed. The comparisons to Japan, and discussions about Japan, concentrate on work and culture in the society. No bibliography. Distributed by Ashgate. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
