Anne Imamura has given us a welldocumented picture of the lifestyle and relationships of contemporary urban middleclass Japanese housewives. Although her major focus is not on changes in the housewife's role, her broad detailed analysis gives us some of the best answers available to questions about these changes... The picture that emerges is one of the substantial liberation and increased autonomy.... Even the traditional separation between the men's world and the women's world has served to strengthened the women's autonomy within the home. On the other hand, the primacy of the role of wife/mother continues. It is the overwhelming importance of doing a competent job as family caretaker that both motivates and places constraints on most daily activities. Suzanna H. Vogel
