Featured Title: Women’s Movements in Asia

“Experts in analyzing gender issues offer this unique comparative analysis of the evolution of ‘national essence feminism’ in the context of global feminism. To find out how the women’s movement in twelve Asian nations have fought for bodily autonomy, participation in politics and religion, new definitions of womanhood, changed family relations and much more – this book is the best (indeed the only) one to read.” -- Chilla Bulbeck Professor emerita and visiting research fellow, The University of Adelaide, Australia
