Ikeya's first book – a monograph on 'women, colonialism and modernity' in colonial Burma – was well-received. One reviewer called it "one of the most important books on colonial Burma to have emerged in the last century".[1] Other reviewers called it a "social historical masterpiece",[2] a "wonderful book",[3] a "sophisticated, nuanced work",[4] and an "excellent book".[5] Another reviewer, despite specific criticisms, welcomed "an important and distinctive contribution [...] original, lucid and well researched".[6]
