In Japan, manga are not just for children. Books combining text and illustrations have been popular with Japanese readers of all ages for centuries. Today, one-third of all books published in Japan are manga.

Manga offer several advantages over traditional text-only works. Our brains process text up to twice as quickly if it is combined with pictures. Retention is also improved. Narratives about humans experiencing sadness, anger, and joy connect to our instinctive capacity for empathy, conveying key information more vividly and memorably.

JMAM applies these insights to books specifically for businesspeople. Our manga make it easier to quickly grasp advanced concepts in business and industry, from management theory to manufacturing efficiency.

How much do you know about Japanese culture? From tea ceremony and haiku to anime and karaoke, aspects of Japanese culture have been embraced around the world. But it also has subtler depths that are not as widely known.

Concepts like ikigai (finding purpose in life), omotenashi (gracious and effortless hospitality) and sanpo yoshi (business that is good for the buyer, the seller, and society at large) offer a uniquely Japanese take on universal human concerns like striving to do good and treat others well. Even Japan’s business world is guided by a philosophy of building prosperity by respecting the public.

JMAM’s books on Japanese culture explain traditional values, customs, and approaches to living in a way that helps busy modern readers apply these ideas in their own lives, both at home and in the office.

Every parent wants their child to be happy—to bring out their child’s abilities and help them succeed and flourish in life.

Of course, this is easier said than done. Children and parents do not always see eye-to-eye. Fortunately, JMAM’s books for parents offer insight into what children are thinking and how to help them find their way in life. With understanding and mutual respect, families can grow together happily.

We also publish educational books for children to help nurture their innate talent and intelligence. Our books use manga and cute characters to speak directly to children in language they understand. They also hold deeper messages for children about broadening your horizons and thinking for yourself.
