An entrepreneur who is also Masayoshi Son's younger brother teaches a new way of living and learning in the new era.
The author has chosen themes from his writings, which he had published on a social networking service for the community only, to create this book. The blog was aimed at adults, but I wanted to make it something that younger people could read as well. We made it easy for teenagers to read, for example, by having the author go back in time and have a dialogue with thinkers such as Zhuangzi," said Hiromi Nakagawa, the editor in charge of the book.
The conventional way of education and ability-based education are no match for artificial intelligence such as ChatGPT. The author explains that from now on, we need to be enthusiastic about what we like and "unlearn," which means to discard existing values and common sense once and for all and question them fundamentally. The author also mentions a unique lesson he received from his father when he was a child, and how it has become the starting point of his career.
He also mentions a unique teaching he received from his father when he was a child, which was the starting point of the book. "I have heard from high school students who decided to go abroad to do what they love to do, and my son, who had been withdrawn, has decided to enter a correspondence school. I believe this book will give us a hint to take a step forward in an age that demands fundamental questions about what human beings should do and how they should live," says Nakagawa.
The book will be released in February 2023. First printing:
12,000 copies. Currently in its eighth printing of 90,000 copies (including
electronic copies).
