Galbraith has an earlier book called Japanese Science Fiction, Fantasy, and Horror Films, published by McFarland. It's very extensive in scope and is about have 2-5 page reviews and half filmography. Probably the best book ever written on Japanese fantastic cinema is _Age of the Gods_ by Guy Mariner Tucker, Daikaiju Publishing, 1996, but it had only one small prinitng that I assume has sold out. It was based on interviews with many of the people involved in making the films--many, such as Ishiro Honda, Akira Kurosawa, Momoko Kochi, and Masaru Sato--now deceased, that were conducted by the author. He also provides the only interview material I know of for many others, such as Yoshio Tsuchiya and Yoshimitsu Banno (Banno really ought to make another film, IMHO).
