Reviews

This is an excellent volume that is particularly timely given the significant demographic challenges that East Asian societies are facing related to population aging and population decline. It is an outstanding collection by a group of excellent scholars. John Trapaghan, University of Texas This is an excellent book... The editors describe their manuscript as in dialogue with my 2004 classic volume on filial piety. [It] is more than just a timely update. Charlotte Ikels, Case Western Reserve University


[This] is a highly commendable work of scholarship with wide appeal that will be an essential resource for anyone interested in the dynamic field of aging and care in East Asia. I learned a lot and would recommend it to anyone who is interested in East Asian society. * Jason Danely, Oxford Brookes University This is an excellent volume that is particularly timely given the significant demographic challenges that East Asian societies are facing related to population aging and population decline. It is an outstanding collection by a group of excellent scholars. * John Trapaghan, University of Texas The editors describe their manuscript as in dialogue with my 2004 volume on filial piety.
