About this product

Product Information

Thailand and Thai culture are exotic. In spite of the effects of mass tourism and globalization, Thailand is unusual in that it preserves much of its unique traditional culture very largely intact. This compelling collection of articles aims to highlight facets of Thai life, aspects that are in most cases readily seen and yet defining in their own way of the 'Thainess' that indelibly stamps the culture of a country and a people so fascinating and, ultimately, so endearing. The articles are grouped by themes covering The Buddhist World; The Supernatural World; The Ceremonial World; The Festive World; The Natural World; The Art World; The Sporting World and The Changing World. They reflect the author's long fascination with the country - he has lived there since 1979 - for him it is the unexpected that underscores precisely what the city and Thai culture as a whole is all about - the ability to constantly surprise, to offer fresh encounters - as this fascinating book gradually reveals.
