SUGGESTED OUTSIDE READINGS

The books listed below are excellent sources of further information on Asian women. As they are compendiums or not written by women, I have not put them on the list for your book report but if you have time to read them now or in the future they will add greatly to your understanding of various issues for women in Asia. |
