About this title

Synopsis

Bestselling author Michael Lewis (Liar's Poker, The Money Culture) takes a journalistic romp through the clashing cultures of Japan and the United States, revealing how the vast differences between them affect every aspect of the current trade war. Pacific Rift dramatizes the basic misconceptions that Americans and Japanese have about each other.

From the Back Cover

In 'Pacific Rift, ' the best selling author aims his skewering wit at the so-called cultural clash between Japan and the United States. The result is a very different kind of book on U.S.- Japanese business relations. Lewis dramatizes tragicomic collisions between the two cultures and the basic misconceptions that Americans and Japanese have about each other.
