Seagull friend and Patron Kozo Yamamura who passed away on February 15, 2017 was a scholar of high distinction having written over twenty books and many more essays and articles on the Japanese economy and on the nature of Capitalism.

Kozo had another life. One in which under his pseudonym Michael S Koyama he collaborated with his wife Susan B Hanley in penning many novels for Seagull Books.

From authors they became loyal friends who also went on to support the PeaceWorks programmes and our History for Peace Conferences are always dedicated to the memory of our dear friend Kozo.
