"One Hundred Years of Idiocy" is a collection of 100 documentary photographs from the 20th century, each a symbol of the idiocy humankind has exerted on the Earth, and each a confirmation of reality.
The book also carries messages for the future contributed by world eminent writers and scholars.

With Tetsuya Ozaki, editor of the Web magazine "Real Tokyo," as editorial director and Naoki Sato of Asyl Design, who won the New York ADC award for "Wired" as art director, the book proved to be a unique and high quality work.
