It is on several business book bestseller lists here in Japan,
and almost every major bookshop here in Tokyo has it in prominent
position. I am afraid you'll need to read it in Japanese language,
but the book is not very long, so you should be able to read it
in a reasonable time if you have a basic knowledge of Japanese and
a dictionary...
