5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent book, 27 Mar 2005
By A Customer
This review is from: Rising Sun (Paperback)
Even though this book is over ten years old it is absolutely amazing and still very relevant. It basically serves as a medium by which the author describes and explains how Japanese companies are beter than American / Western ones. The author describes how Japanese culture results in greater efficiency and a impressive work ethic which and how this has made Japan the modern economic super power it is today. After living in Japan for six months myself I find it hard to disagree with the author. Yes, this book is controversial, or was more so at the time of original publication but thats because it tells the truth and is heavily based in fact. The bottom line? Westerners are stupid and lazy and this lets the Japanese walk all over them in business.

5.0 out of 5 stars Adrenalin rush, 29 Oct 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Rising Sun (Paperback)
What a powerful story! What a magnificant writer! If you have not read anything by Michael Crichton, after reading this book you will be hooked. Rising Sun has all the ingredients and spices of a breath-taking thriller: the pace, the characters, the storyline. If you decide to watch the film, please read the book afterwards. While the film is very good but after reading the book the film will seem weak. At least let a few days pass by before you watch the film so that the excitement of the book wears off a little.

5.0 out of 5 stars I love it love it just love it, 16 Jun 2003
This review is from: Rising Sun (Paperback)
I have read a lot of novels from a lot of authors. Some of my favourites are A painted house by John Grisham and The hades factor by Robert Ludlum. But when i read Rising Sun i forgot about them. Rising Sun is the best novel i have ever encountered.
The Sypnosis:

On the 45th floor of the Nakamoto tower in downtown L.A a grand opening celebration is in full swing. On the 46th floor, in an empty confrence room 1 person rapes a girl and murder's her. Then the people find a dead body of a sexy girl. The investigation begins and immediately becomes a headlong chase through a twisting maze of industrial intrigue. The barred conflict in which control of a vital american technology is the fiercely coveted prize- and the Japanese saying "business is war" takes on a terrifying reality.....

Please buy Rising Sun you wont be dissapointed. Its a value for money and a good read. As you read, the plot thickens and twists and turns. There are many suspects to the girl's murder Eddie Sukamoro, Senator Riley, Senator Morton, Weasel Wilhelm but its up to you to read and find out.

5.0 out of 5 stars WARNING:
Once you pick it up, you won't want be able to put it down. Make sure you inform your family that you will be out of it for a while. BRILLIANT, one of Michael Crichton's best.
