Male Circumcision in Japan

“In a book that draws deftly from a range of scholars and theories, Castro-Vázquez invites us to consider the biomedicalization of the practice in the sociohistorical context of gender and sexual ideology in Japan. … the book is an important contribution to the sociology of masculinity, of sexuality, of bodies, of medicine, and of knowledge and thus, a worthwhile read.” (Amanda Kennedy, Men and Masculinities, Vol. 20 (1), 2017)
