| Description: |
This is the first English-language book to record the experiences and testimonies of Chinese women abducted and detained as sex slaves in Japanese military "comfort stations" during Japan's 1931-45 invasion of China. |
| Synopsis: |
This book fills a vital gap in our understanding of the abduction and enslavement of "comfort women" by the Japanese military during the Asia-Pacific war, and will be important reading for students and scholars of war crimes, Asian Studies, and Women's Studies. It will also appeal to legal experts, human rights activists, scholars of oral history, and general readers interested in the Second World War. |
