In Shige Suzuki and Ronald Stewart’s book, Manga: A Critical Guide, Suzuki and Stewart set out to provide an analytical overview of manga with particular attention to social, historical, cultural, and aesthetic matters surrounding the medium. This publication modernizes previous frameworks and research published on the topic to introduce an updated survey of the amazingly diverse and ever-evolving field of manga and Japanese comics studies.
