Don't feel too bad, your Japanese is probably better than mine, and I have lived here for over 1.5 years - I am just a senile old man :D (Don't ask how much German I know after working and living in Boebligen for 4 months.) You are welcome and thanks for visiting and commenting on my blog as well.

Actually, I did enjoy this book also, and the topic (like all his previous books) is certainly timely and important.

As for his overuse of expert quotes - that's his style and I agree - his points get lost as a result. Everytime I read a Friedman book, I ask myself the same question: "When is this guy going to get an editor?!"
