Self-introduction

There do appear to be three copies of Standish' book in the SOAS library.
Here's some other possible sources you might want to look at below - you'll be able to find most of these in the BFI library:

I don't believe there is a softcover edition, but if you check the UK version of the Amazon site, the book seems to be a bit cheaper (£66.50), and one selling used for £40.

My project focuses on female outlaws in yakuza eiga (e.g. Hibotan Bakuto and Gokudō no Onnatachi) and Tōei so-called 'pinky violence' films.
