"Through his fine grasp of the current literature on the issues and
discussions related to the Japanese male and female workers, the
author skillfully weaves the bibliographical information with his
discussions in the texts, and educates us with the current academic
understanding of the Japanese working class... [P]resents a much
enriched portrait of the factory worker in the Japanese small firm.
It is a wonderful addition to the much-needed counter-narratives on
the Japanese working class. - Soon-Won Park, Lecturer, Keio
University."

doubt please a large audience."
