To whom are interested in Japan's economic growth experience. The followings are part of the preface written by the author:

"This book offers an analytical tour of Japan’s socio-economic changes. It is neither a monotonous chronology nor a collection of unrelated academic papers. Instead, it introduces the readers to the most advanced—and sometimes controversial—studies on the modern history of Japan. Internal capability generated by frequent interactions between domestic and external forces is the connecting thread throughout this volume. While the writing style may seem simple and without too much theorization, ideas presented here are the ones that have emerged from long and serious investigation by many researchers. I believe that this is the first book of this kind ever to have been published either in English or in Japanese. Please enjoy."
