Recenzje

'This book is a welcome contribution to Myanmar scholarship in many disciplines, but more importantly it is an enticement for any researcher interested in Myanmar to do more work on the status of women, the politics of sexuality, and the power dynamics between men and women. Myanmar's modern history comes alive through the carefully crafted personal narratives of the four extraordinary women.' Maureen Aung-Thwin, Pacific Affairs
