An Introduction to Japanese Society by Yoshio Sugimoto

Mutual Security in the Asia-Pacific by Kang Choi (Editor); James Manicom (Editor); Simon Palamar (Editor)
Mutual Security in the Asia-Pacific: Roles for Australia, Canada and South Korea addresses the economic and security challenges that loom in the region and the role that these three countries can play to ensure a stable, predictable political environment.
Seeds of Control by David Fedman; Paul S. Sutter
Holding up for scrutiny the notion of conservation, Seeds of Control examines the roots of Japanese ideas about the Korean landscape, as well as the consequences and aftermath of Japanese approaches to Korea's "greenification." Drawing from sources in Japanese and Korean, Fedman writes colonized lands into Japanese environmental history, revealing a largely untold story of green imperialism in Asia.
