Morris-Suzuki 
Beyond Computopia [EPUB ebook] 

First published in 1988. The author’s purpose in writing this book is neither to offer any specific lessons from Japan’s experience, nor to add to the warnings of the ‚Japanese menace‘ to western technological hegemony. The aim and perspective of this book is to use the study of Japan as a means of outlining a theory of information society which will be radically different, from the ideas put forward by most Japanese theorists of the subject.
