Toronto, Canada — Neil Seeman, Canadian author, publisher, entrepreneur, and public health professor, announced today that his highly acclaimed 2023 book, “Accelerated Minds: Unlocking the Fascinating, Inspiring, and Often Destructive Impulses that Drive the Entrepreneurial Brain” (Sutherland House Books), will be published in Japanese by the prestigious Japanese business press, Toyo Keizai, on June 25, 2025.
Seeman, co-founder of publishing house Sutherland House Experts (SHE), is honored to announce that “Accelerated Minds” is coming to Japan. Translation for the work was done by Yoko Niwata, renowned translator of major international non-fiction works. The Japanese edition will be released under a new title, Entrepreneurship Addiction: The Stimulating and Destructive Impulses That Drive the Accelerated Brain of Entrepreneurs. This exciting news marks a milestone in the global recognition of Canadian non-fiction authors whose expertise is in mental health advocacy for business and entrepreneurship.
Launched in November 2023, Sutherland House Experts — for which Professor Seeman is co-founder and publisher — has become a magnet for authors who want to amplify their voices in their specific fields of expertise. In the healthcare sector, SHE’s authors, including Seeman, are passionate about healthcare reform and will continue to share their knowledge for education and mentorship to improve healthcare systems and healthcare leadership. Sutherland House Experts is dedicated to providing their authors in all categories of expertise a platform to be heard internationally. The publishing world is evolving rapidly, and Sutherland House Experts is leaving its footprint. SHE provides a platform for ‘quiet experts,’ those with decades of experience in one or more fields, to share their knowledge internationally. Seeman, who continues to be inspired by his scientist parents, the late Mary and Philip Seeman, runs Sutherland House Experts in their honor. His parents’ legacy of passion and dedication for empowering “quiet minds” fuels Seeman’s work and remains a core part of his journey.
“Entrepreneurship Addiction” takes readers inside the workings of the minds of those who can’t help risking it all for the sake of innovation. This compelling book is drawn from Seeman’s own entrepreneurial experience and his late father’s (one of the world’s most important brain scientists) research into the processing of risk and reward through the brain chemical, dopamine. Seeman explains how the entrepreneurial mindset, the world’s primary wealth creation engine, can turn into a form of addiction. Individuals with this mindset can experience accelerating highs, but also tormenting, debilitating lows. They can live on an unsustainable hamster wheel of constant striving and often wind up destroying the very things that they helped create. Why? “Entrepreneurship Addiction” makes sense of this this mindset with compassion, deep insight, and discovered paths in which the vital energies of the entrepreneurial class can be fuelled in a more constructive and sustainable manner.
“Entrepreneurs need to learn how to shift gears and put a brake pedal on their overactive brains or else they will suffer,” says Neil Seeman, Publisher, Sutherland House Experts & Senior Fellow and Professor, Institute of Health Policy, Management and Evaluation, University of Toronto.
