Bangkok: Place, Practice and Representation (Routledge Studies in Asia's Transformations) Book

Bangkok is one of Asia's most interesting, varied, controversial and challenging cities. This unique book examines the development of the city from its earliest days as the seat of the Thai monarchy to its current position as the most infamous contemporary metropolis in Southeast Asia. Adopting insights from cultural history, urban studies and human geography, the book is a powerful and multi-faceted account of the real Bangkok. The author examines the city's variety from the inner-city slums to the rural-urban fringe and gives us a keen insight into the daily life of the city's inhabitants, be they middle-class suburbanites or sex workers. Engagingly written and rich in detail, this is the definitive account of the Thai capital.Read More
