"I warmly commend this book of ideas, of analysis, of recommendations by Kojima Sensei. The world needs thinkers and analysts like him. Japan certainly needs thinkers and analysts like him. We all need to try to stand back and to reflect coolly and deeply about the state of the world, about the problems we face but also about the potential solutions to those problems. Kojima Sensei's book offers a fine contribution to such cool and deep reflection."

So writes Bill Emmott, former editor-in-chief of The Economist and author of several best-selling books about Japan, in his foreword to this "splendid selection" of essays by one of Japan's foremost journalists and public intellectuals, Kojima Akira. A former editor-in-chief of the world's largest financial newspaper, the Nihon keizai shimbun, and currently senior fellow of the Japan Center for Economic Research, Kojima has few peers in the world of economics research and analysis.

Published in January by The Japan Journal, the book brings together fifty essays and articles written by Kojima over the course of this decade, with a view to informing debate at a time when, as Kojima writes, "Japan stands at a historical turning point, both economically and socially." We at The Japan Journal believe, like Bill Emmott, that readers around the world may learn much from Kojima's "open-minded, globally aware" analysis.
