This book examines the question—how Japanese have been able to carry out technological change so quickly and so smoothly—in depth by comparing the introduction of a major new industrial process—use of the basic oxygen furnace (BOF)—in Japan and in the United States.
Leonard H. Lynn is assistant professor in the Department of Social Science at Carnegie-Mellon University. He has conducted extensive research in Japan on the Japanese steel industry and Japanese social structure, most recently as a Fulbright Fellow and Social Science Research Council Research Fellow. His article, “Iron and Steel Industry in Japan”, is forthcoming in the Encyclopedia of Japan (Kodansha).
