The Asian Mystique: Dragon Ladies, Geisha Girls, &… by Sheridan Prasso

I thought this book was "OK", it seemed biased and feminist, which I don't disagree with, but I thought this would be a more scholarly work, instead it was more of an affirmation of feminism and the role of women in Asia - Just my take on it!
