This is my first time in an academic text book. I have a chapter in this book, out May 2022:
Cross-Cultural Studies: Newest Developments in Japan and the UK
Edited By: Yumiko Hada (Doshisha Women's College of Liberal Arts, Japan).
My chapter is:
Some Characteristics of Comic Books in the UK and Japan
For the super cheap price of $118 (ha!, incredible how expensive academic books are)
“This book brings together contributions from leading authors in a range of fields related to Japan and the United Kingdom. Adopting a comparative perspective, it tackles topics ranging from the politics of opposition, democracy, immigration and citizenship, to education, sportsmanship and popular culture, as well as issues of immigration and identity. Each chapter presents and clarifies the differences, similarities and exchanges between the two countries to emphasise that, though little exists in isolation in this global age, in-depth knowledge of particular regions remains vital. This book argues for a deeper understanding of the UK and Japan in pursuit of hope, and casts a reflection on the self and one's own sense of place and identity. It will be an invaluable resource for anyone interested in cross-cultural theory and comparisons between Japan and the United Kingdom.”
