This review is from: Gender and Power in Affluent Asia (The New Rich in Asia) (Paperback)
`Gender and Power in Affluent Asia' is about women, new rich and power in East and South-East Asia. This is a landmark study devoted to study the relationships between gender and power associated with the new rich class in the East and South-East Asian region written by a group of academics from Australia and Asia. This is the third book of the New Rich Series published by the Asia Research Center located at Perth based Murdoch University.This is indeed a rich compendium of knowledge on theories relating to gender, power, sex and modernity covering one of the most populated regions of the world.
