'This important volume will be very useful to those interested in the history of anthropology, colonialism and anthropology, and Asia. This work breaks new ground in exploring lesser-known anthropologies and their uses in a variety of colonial contexts. Their compilation into one volume will provide specialists from other academic traditions and world regions with a basic understanding of anthropology in these arenas that will be useful for their further exploration and comparison.' - Suzanne Falgout, Journal of Asian History (JAH)'I believe that this book is a valuable contribution to the project of critically examining the world history of anthropology...the experiences of Japanese anthroplogy examined in this book provide significant lessons that deserve worldwide attention.' - Prof. Shinji Yamashita, Social Science Japan Journal
