As the sparse bibliography indicates very little information on the topic is available, at least in the English language. Most data was gathered from informal interviews With participants in the Japanese housing industry or from unofficial documents. All statistical inputs came from the 1968 editions of the Housing Survey of Japan and the hud Statistical Yearbook. The field work for the study took place during the summer of 1970 as part of the Intercultural Communications Program of the Sloan School under the direction of Dr. Richard Robinson. All expenses were met by a grant from the United Fruit Company. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
