from Yale University Press
Price: $25.08

Customer Review:
This book gives the other-side of pe rspective of Thailand under constitutional monarchy. I believe the people who live in Thailand don't have a chance to access to these kinds of information.

2.[no image]Anna and the King of Siam
from John Day Co

Customer Review:
This is a wonderful read - I've read it several times. The descriptions of Siam (Thailand) are very vivid and the characters are well drawn.
One word of warning - this isn't really a biography. The author said something like, it was 75% fact and 25% fiction based on fact. Abbot Low Moffat, in... more info

3.Birds of Thailand (Princeton Field Guides)Birds of Thailand (Princeton Field Guides)
from Princeton University Press

Customer Review:
BIRDS OF THAILAND is the reason the prestige university press and its zero-tolerance approach to schlock products exists. Princeton University Press has done itself proud with this condensed and focused version of author Robson's BIRDS OF SOUTHEAST ASIA.
If you're interested in the birds that... more info

4.The Rough Guide to ThailandThe Rough Guide to Thailand
from Rough Guides

Customer Review:
Do your research on line before going to any of the hotels suggested in this guide. Some of them are real dumps. Also, the guide does little to show you how to get around the country. I'm spoiled by Rick Steves guides that basically take you step by step on how to get out of the airport and to the... more info

5.A History of ThailandA History of Thailand
from Cambridge University Press
Price: $19.79

Customer Review:
Having visited Thailand a couple of times I knew some of the basic history. This book helps fill in the gaps in my knowledge and tells the story of Thailand from the pre-nation days. The focus is mainly on the 20th century and to some extent the mid- to late- 19th. This makes perfect sense as there... more info

Customer Review:
I refer to this book often, as I have a great interest in the subject of Traditional Thai Medicine. It is well written and ultimately gives the reader a sense of the true depth of history behind the medicine that preceded Western culture in Thailand. The tradition that shaped medicine in Thailand... more info

For anyone interested in Southeast Asia, Colonialismm, Nationalism, politics of geography, and Thailand this book is a must read.

8.Asia Shock: Horror and Dark Cinema from Japan, Korea, Hong Kong, and ThailandAsia Shock: Horror and Dark Cinema from Japan, Korea, Hong Kong, and Thailand
from Stone Bridge Press
Price: $14.96

Customer Review:
I purchased the book because of the reviews and because there aren't that many books on J-Horror. A few things I didn't like- while the movie reviews are well written and quite obvious that the author has watched them- there is way too much detail, i.e. spoilers in the reviews. If you have not... more info

from Yale University Press

Customer Review:
Undoubtedly, the author knew Thailand and its history extremely well! This unfortunately is only necessary but not sufficient to write a readable book.
