全球精英的必讀刊物Monocle創立於2007年，一開始是以出版雜誌為主，目標客群是「全球精英階層」，在全世界的精品店和大型城市的機場販售。不過它並非因為精美的雜誌設計聞名全球，而是「成功轉型為生活風格品牌」。
這是Monocle首度與Thames & Hudson出版社合作推出的書籍，由總編輯Tyler Brule領軍的優質編輯團隊，聚焦「日本」，以全新的角度剖析，重新定義日本精粹，介紹關於文化、設計、建築、交通、商業、人、美食及城市的獨特見解。用全新的角度剖析，一窺職人們的匠心獨具、名勝下的遺世秘境，還有產品背後的巧思。透過人、地、物三者，串連起日本的新美學，帶你看見完美的新層次。

Ever since it launched in 2007, Monocle has had a rich and deep connection with Japan. From day one the magazine has had a Tokyo bureau – which today also encompasses a Monocle shop and radio studios – run under the watchful eye of Asia bureau chief Fiona Wilson.
Over the past decade the magazine has built up a unique understanding and passion for the nation. It has covered everything from a live journey on the Emperor’s jet and the tastiest places to eat in Kagoshima to the fashion designers crafting new levels of excellence and the businesses with remarkable stories untold outside Japan. This new book reveals the best of the nation in the run up to the 2020 Olympics. Complete with stunning photography and intriguing essays, it is a unique showcase of a country that for many remains a mystery.
