'A nuanced exploration of the intricacies of European Javanese interaction, and an insightful and thought-provoking analysis of the ambiguous implications and legacy of that interaction for Java and, more broadly, for Indonesia. This is an important book which raises big and significant issues of great relevance to Java and Indonesia today.' - Robert Elson, Asian Studies Review
