Review Quotes: This volume brings together a refreshing set of chapters focusing on the diverse and dynamic landscape of contemporary Asian media and culture. Adopting what the editors call a 'trans-Asian' approach and adopting an expansive notion of 'Asia' that extends beyond discrete nation-states and conventional regional boundaries, the volume is testimony to the coming into maturity of Asian and Asian-diasporic scholarship in the field.
