Publisher's Synopsis

While the consequences of low social order are well understood, the consequences of high social order are not. Yet perhaps nowhere in the world is social order so well developed as in Japan, which is highly organized, economically successful, and enjoys a safe society. However, Japan pays a price—the loss of personal freedom, and the inability to exploit its citizens' talents.
