"How did Japan, despite its lack of natural resources, become the world's leading iron- and steel-producing country? It is not enough to put an emphasis merely on the role of government. When Japan entered the modern industrial world in the middle of the nineteenth century, the country lacked not only technology but also technologists, engineers, a capital pool, managers, experienced workers, and a steady level of demand for new industrial outputs. To industrialise Japan needed not only to transfer physical equipment from the Western world but also to build up economic, social and organisational capabilities internally." "This book examines the history of Japan's iron and steel industry and scrutinises how the collaboration between government, industry and individual entrepreneurs created this economic miracle."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Northeast Asian steel industries have developed global production networks, but by spanning multiple national spaces, these networks unite many national economies while belonging exclusively to none. Who, therefore, is in control? Jeffrey D. Wilson examines how states and firms coordinate their activities to govern global production.
The first book to chronicle the golden age of Japanese bicycle design. Japanese bicycles have long been at the forefront of both competitive and recreational cycling—from top-flight racing bicycles to collectible custom fixed-gear frames. This comprehensive and stunningly illustrated book presents a fascinating overview of the most prolific and celebrated period of Japanese bicycle design, between the 1950s and the ’80s, when uniquely talented artisanal craftsmen produced some of the most iconic bicycles of the twentieth century. From the recognizable silhouettes of major manufacturers like Fuji, Panasonic, and Bridgestone to the rarest frames from artisanal builders like 3-Rensho or Nagasawa, Japanese bicycle designers dominated the cycling world and created machines that are still revered today. Illustrated with specially commissioned photographs of fully restored bikes, and supplemented with artifacts and ephemera from technical manuals to photography of the legendary Keirin racing circuits, this book is must-have for anyone with an interest in cycling and the phenomenon of Japanese design.
