Description
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.
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.

good, but long account
This is a different one. A good book if much too long. As another reviewer said lots of tangents, but these usually contain good, but not totally relevant info. Also, the chapters cover topics and are not necessarily in chronological order, so they repeat some info that has already been discussed and what is weird is that they do it without seeming to realize they have already explained it.
as to the actual case, It seems that Ghosn wanted to be the major player in charge of multiple companies branding himself as a savior nobody else could match, with unquestioned authority. And then he seems surprised when fortune changes and people are coming at him and his position. despite his claims of a conspiracy, the US SEC plea deal seems to suggest that his actions are not beyond scrutiny. for all of his business acumen he appeared to not notice that his 'one man show' style clashed with a culture where company and societal interests are supposed to reign supreme. that said the Japanese legal system definitely is portrayed as not being balanced in the way most western legal systems are.
