Review
"...a valuable reference work for both the specialists and the general reader." -- Against the Grain, April 2002
"A most welcome contribution.... Features excellent coverage of Japanese women and consistently introduces critical feminist perspectives that are rarely seen in other reference work on Japan.... [It] is eminently readable for undergraduate and public libraries readers, and is an ideal reference tool thanks to its excellent cross-referencing.... One of the year's best reference works and should be widely purchased and enjoyed for the diversity and quality of writing it makes accessible." -- American Reference Books Annual, 2003
"A delight to browse [and]....a solid choice for academic libraries supporting Asian studies." -- Library Journal, February 15, 2002
"A valuable addition to library reference collections....Recommended for larger public and academic libraries." -- Booklist/RBB, June 2002
"The editors have done an excellent job in filling the needs of their targeted audience, 'an accessible reference for both the specialist and a more general reader seeking information on a more specific topic or wanting an overview of a theme or area of contemporary Japanese culture.'." -- Multicultural Review, William DiBiase, Siena College
