"In recent years, through research and greater openness, the extent and nature of the problem of suicide in Asia have become more apparent. It is clear that the causes of suicide in Asia and hence the optimal prevention strategies have some specific features which differ from those elsewhere in the world. It is therefore extremely welcome to see a book specifically focussed on suicide in Asia. The editor and authors are to be congratulated on having prepared a valuable contribution that will help in tackling this important issue." – Professor Keith Hawton, University of Oxford

"This useful compilation of findings on suicide in Asian societies will be important for suicide researchers worldwide. The interpretations of their meanings are also important and raise questions about the intersection of rapid societal changes, changes in subjectivity and moral experience, and culture that will fuel research for the next decade. A real achievement!" – Professor Arthur Kleinman, Harvard University

"This book contributes significantly to our understanding of suicide in Asian societies. Most of what we know about suicide in the world comes from studies in Western countries, despite the fact that a majority of the world's suicides occur in Asia. The information in this volume provides an essential basis for understanding suicide in Asian countries in order to develop culture-sensitive prevention strategies in the Asian region." – Professor Brian L Mishara, President, International Association for Suicide Prevention
