Based on that research, which she conducted for her master's thesis, she wrote The Tea, Sugar, and Camphor Industries and Socioeconomic Change in Taiwan, 1860-1895. The book, an expanded version of which has so far had eight printings, has been widely cited, and is regarded as essential reading for those researching economic and trade history in Taiwan.
她根據碩士論文寫成的專書《茶、糖、樟腦業與台灣之社會經濟變遷》不但被廣泛徵引，至今更已 8 度重印，是研究台灣經貿史必讀的作品。
