Stone Bridge Press was established in Berkeley, California, in 1989 and now has some 150 titles in print, covering such Japan-related areas as language, business, literature, manga, design, and culture. Why this interest in Japan? We're not tea-cult dilettantes or management gurus. We simply believe that Japan offers tremendous opportunities for re-examining Western values and for connecting with an emerging global culture increasingly centered on the Pacific Rim. Enjoy!
