Space Japan Book Review (in English)
Larry Downes and Paul F. Nunes:"Big Bang Disruption Strategy in the age of devastating innovation", Portfolio, 2014.
Dr. Takashi Iida, Editorial Advisor of Space Japan Review
Because the topics related method of research and development are within the range concerned of this column, this book was picked up. The "big bang disruption" in this book is a somewhat shocking title, although the title of Japanese translation version is "Big Bang Innovation". I will introduce this book in my own way of interpretation with adding information around, although this book is included to exceed my understanding. Misreading should be avoided. But please forgive me if there is a misunderstanding. The most of this review are based on Japanese translation version of this book.

Ultimately, I was able to connect bus and transfer my mother safely, but in such a life that it is commonplace to keep in touch with a mobile phone, such an emergency has brought about great anxiety and inconvenience. "JEPICO's Chihiro Hayashi wrote about encounter with satellite communication and her current work.
