What has gone wrong in Japan that has led to innovation crisis?
Prof. Eiichi Yamaguchi has been committed to answer this question,
and his quest has spanned several years and academic disciplines.
Initially it appeared as if it had no context, but when he put the
pieces together, he realized that it was actually one story. This
book is a summary of his research over the last 20 years,
especially after he moved out of the field of physics, to which he
had devoted 21 years. He felt that it was essential for him to do
his bit to save this sinking ship, or it would be disrespectful to
the future generation. The book integrates his research on
innovation policy, innovation theory, and trans-science. It begins
with a detailed story of the innovation of blue LEDs, for which
three Japanese scientists received the Nobel Prize in Physics in
2014. It describes the current innovation and science crises in
Japan and presents evidence that the strong international
competitiveness of science-based industries in the United States is
a result of the invention of the Small Business Innovation Research
(SBIR) system. It discusses a new theory of innovation structures,
showing the error in Clayton M. Christensen's argument of
"disruptive innovation." It also proposes a new concept for
"paradigm disruptive innovation," emphasizing that abduction and
transilience are essential factors for accomplishing it and that
their decline has led to the innovation crisis in Japan. Finally,
it analyzes the future vision of the innovation ecosystem, which
promotes abduction and transilience, for scientists to develop new
science-based industries.
