Features: This book was written by Dr. Halinton for American enterprises, with a very clear purpose: to revitalize American manufacturing and maintain the United States' dominance in the economy. As is well known, by the late 1960s of the 20th century, Japan and the European countries had recovered from the wounds of World War II and began to enter the global market, gradually occupying industries that were previously held with absolute advantage by the United States. Since the 1970s, emerging Asian industrial nations, which had developed through manufacturing, squeezed into the global market, making American manufacturing show a decline. Although the 1980s saw prosperity during the Reagan era, by the time the 1990s began, Japan had nearly caught up with the United States in economic strength.
