"Reimagining Japan"
This book, published in the summer of 2011 by Shogakukan in Japan and Simon & Schuster in the U.S., is a collection of essays about Japan's role in the world. T. R. Reid's section of the book contemplates how the Japanese will recover from the triple disaster of March 11, 2011.
Reid's take is generally hopeful: "The Japanese are good at recovering from disaster; after all, they've had a lot of practice."
