The revised translation of Culture and Anarchy: Political and Social Criticism is a classic in intellectual history, concerned with the place of culture in social transformation. Dangerous Pleasures: Prostitution and Modernity in Twentieth-Century Shanghai (selected edition) takes modern Shanghai as its setting and brings prostitution into discussions of modernity and social change.
