Description

Explore the complex history and current state of a major global market with The Japanese Pharmaceutical Industry: Its Evolution and Current Challenges. This volume from the Routledge Studies in the Growth Economies of Asia series examines a unique economic paradox. While Japan leads the world in sectors like consumer electronics and automobiles, it remains a minor player in the global pharmaceutical industry. This book analyzes how Japan became the second largest consumer of prescription drugs after the United States, yet continues to rely heavily on imports and discoveries made outside its borders. Readers will follow the industry's development from the period of devastation following the Second World War through to its modern performance. By focusing specifically on the history of antibiotics, this text provides a detailed look at the economic shifts and challenges facing this massive market.
