"The real value of this cautionary novel lies in its predictive role - it nicely anticipates major political and even spiritual dilemmas of the century just ahead, our century." - D.M. Hassler, Executive Editor, Extrapolation; "The Yellow Wave is a key early text dealing with racism, western prejudice and national identity, and would be any modern scholar's selection as the first title to bring back into currency." - Van Ikin, Associate Professor of English, Communication and Cultural Studies, The University of Western Australia
