Who did he talk to in order to get such an insider's view?
Although the author is Brittish, his major contribution was to provide such a detailed account of corporate governance practices in Japan, Germany and France where literature is rarer. US and UK summaries are useful if you want to get all the essentials in no more than 40-50 pages. Competing corp. gov. reviews of countries are too superficial compared to this one. For the corp. gov. country analysis I am writing I elected his format as role-model, and his depth and insightfulness as a goal! I just wished I had the same kinds of contacts (in the country I am writing about) Charkham seems to have in ALL 5 countries.
