Product Description

Bangkok's image has been transformed from the chaotic, sleazy, cliches of sensational headlines - into a confident city of design and sophistication - that still retains the kind of fun, vibrant streetlife seldom seen in the developed world. This book chronicles this identity, its culture, and the contemporary faces of its traditions.
