Summary
Japan has achieved a number of triumphs due to the cultural traits inherited from their samurai ancestors. Examples include the country's transformation from a warrior-dominated agrarian society to a modern industrial nation, and its rebound from the destruction of World War II to its status as the second largest economy in the world.
Japanologist Boye Lafayette De Mente identifies the character traits in the samurai code of ethics that made these incredible transformations possible. He explains how these traits can be applied by anyone to enhance their own personal skills and performance, making The Japanese Samurai Code a success manual for everyone.

From the publisher
First line
No Westerner has ever spent more than a few days in Japan without becoming aware of something that is subtle and seemingly mysterious about Japanese culture-something that makes itself felt despite the cacophony of sounds, neon signs and other garish sights that make up the more conspicuous modern-day facade of the country.
