520    "The officious agent did a double take at his papers. 'We 
       have a problem with your passport. Can we move please to 
       another room to discuss something?' Ghosn never saw it 
       coming. In Japan it's called the 'Ghosn Shock'--the 
       stunning arrest of Carlos Ghosn, the jet-setting CEO who 
       saved Nissan and made it part of a global automotive 
       empire. Even more shocking was his daring escape from 
       Japan, packed into a box and put on a private jet to 
       Lebanon after months spent in a Japanese detention center,
       subsisting on rice gruel. How did it come to this, and 
       why? This is the sprawling story of what led to the Ghosn 
       Shock and what was left in its wake. The book chronicles 
       Ghosn's two decades building a colossal partnership 
       between Nissan and Renault. To the world it looked like a 
       new model for a global business, but the alliance's shiny 
       image fronted an unsteady, tense operation. Culture 
       clashes, infighting among executives and engineers, 
       dueling corporate traditions, and government maneuvering 
       constantly threatened the venture. Tokyo-based journalists
       Hans Greimel and William Sposato have followed, up close, 
       Ghosn's two-decade career in Japan and have witnessed the 
       end of the Japanese bubble economy and botched attempts at
       opening Japan Inc. to the world. They've seen the fraying 
       of keiretsu, Japan's traditional skein of business 
       relationships, and covered a number of corporate scandals,
       of which the Ghosn Shock ranks number one. Expertly 
       reported, Collision Course explores the complex suspicions
       around what and who was really responsible for Ghosn's 
       ouster. It explains how economics, history, national 
       interests, legal traditions, and hubris converged on 
       arguably the most important foreign businessman ever to 
       set foot in Japan. This gripping narrative serves as part 
       cautionary tale, part object lesson, and part forewarning 
       of the increasing complexity of doing global business in a
       nationalistic world"--|cProvided by publisher.
