Wisdom Without Waiting | An Expert View on Japan

©John L. Mariotti

Sometimes the best wisdom is that which comes from an expert in the field. My friend Raj Aggarwal is just such an expert of finance and how it connects to the various business disciplines -- from a global perspective. Raj has advised financial leaders around the world, from Alan Greenspan and the Federal Reserve System in the U. S. to Japan's MITI -- its leading policy making organization. He has a new book out, which describes some of his important work, and the work of a group of colleagues of his. If you are interested in this important field check it out!

http://www1.jcu.edu/economic/mellen/mellen.htm

his book consists of eighteen previously unpublished invited chapters by experts on Japanese business. Japanese business can be expected to continue to be of great importance in global and Asian economics especially as the Japanese economy is the dominant economy in Asia being larger than all other Asian economies combined. Policymakers and businesspersons interested in understanding Japanese financial markets will find this book useful. In addition, this book should be a valuable resource for undergraduate, graduate courses, and executive development courses in international business, global finance, and Japanese business.

This book includes contributions by some of the world's best known experts on Japanese business including those from the Pacific Asian Management Institute (Honolulu); the Center for International Business (Leeds); the Federal Reserve Board; Concordia, Georgetown, John Carroll, Lehigh, Seoul National, Temple, Waseda, Washington State and Yale Universities; and the Universities of Bradford, Cambridge, Hawaii, Illinois, Leeds, Texas, and Washington. These international contributions reflect views of authors from the United States, Canada, Hong Kong, Germany, the United Kingdom, and Japan. Joseph Gorman, CEO of TRW, Inc. and chairman of the US-Japan Business Committee has written the foreword to the book and Ambassador William Clark, Jr., President of the Japan Society of New York, recommended the book highly.
