商品簡介
Japan's achievements rest largely on the capacity of Japanese businesses to convert scientific and technological discoveries into commercially viable projects and services. This book sets the context for Japan's innovation strategy, and places Japanese developments in a global setting. Developments in key sectors - mobile media, products for the country's growing population of elderly persons, nanotechnology, biotechnology, robotics, photovoltaic energy and targeted urban development - demonstrate the challenges of achievements of Japan in this increasingly important commercial sector.
