The authors maintain that "the values, habits, and cultural styles ordinarily associated with social development or the arts turn out to be the key ingredients of economic success." This book examines the value systems for creating wealth in the United States, Japan, Germany, France, Great Britain, Sweden, and the Netherlands, and the "unique cultural habits and traditions of economic excellence" in each of these seven "cultures" of capitalism.
