In detailing the social and economic costs of sex discrimination, the book argues that outmoded notions about women are a heavy burden for society. The major challenges of the years ahead, concerning population growth, the provision of basic needs, income distribution, and employment, all are problems that cannot be solved without women's full participation. Leaders have for years ignored the justice of women's claim to equal opportunity; it is becoming more and more difficult for them to ignore its practicality.

In this work nine scholars from Britain, the US and Japan examine aspects of Japan's international role, ranging from its bilateral relations with China and the Soviet Union, through its direct investment in the American market, to the evolution of its aid to the Third World.
