'This collection of work by Chinese scholars makes a valuable contribution to the growing literature on the gendered effects of economic reform processes. It casts new light on the complex and sometimes surprising ways in which gender identities and social relations have been affected by government policies.' - Dr. Maxine Molyneux, University of London 'Women of China is an important collection of the recent work of Chinese scholars. It brings together the voices of a group of women researchers, whose status as observers, participants and scholars of post-Mao China gives them rich and complex perspectives on the subject of their study. Through a multidisciplinary focus on the state and the economy, it explores the losses and the gains, the ambiguities and apparent certainties characterising women's different experiences of economic reform over the past two decades. Scholarly analysis, close attention to empirical detail, and a commitment to examining social and economic reform from a gendered approach combine to make this book a significant and unique addition to the literature of international feminism and Chinese studies.' - Harriet Evans, Centre for the Study of Democracy, University of Westminster
