The information about the path that taken to reach the goals of Sony was what I needed to know and the storytelling writing style was perfect for my reading style.

Must read book. Reads in one flow.

The book is well sectioned into a broad, comprehensive range of topics from the war, technology, management, culture, world trade, etc. I found his approach to setting up in the US interesting (very non-Japanese).The writing style keeps the reader's interest, although the vacillation between formal and colloquial ("flunked") reflects the fact that two ghost writers were used - one American, one Japanese.Overall, a good autobiography well written, comprehensive, with broad appeal to the leader, technologist, international businessman and the politician.

Loved this book!

I really liked the style of this book, its pragmatic and inspiring at the same time. It provides the reader with a good insight into the early wavering fortunes of Sony. An interesting biography which is not self serving or self centred.

"Made in Japan" gives us insight in to Japanese working ethos, their dedication and vision. It is a story of SONY, a company that is world leader in many electronic and IT products, told in simple manner by creator of SONY Mr Akio Morita. Coming from him, one has to believe every word of it. It is fascinating to read and travel along, as the story progress, with a small seedling's growth in to a big corporate giant that SONY today is. No brashness, no adoption of unfair means, no showing off its economic strength. It is a plain simple story of a dreamer who dared to dream and succeeded. An interesting reading.
