'If you've been [to Bangkok], but came away feeling you didn't get as far under its skin as you would have liked, or if you are going and want to know more than the price of fake watches and bar girls, read Warren for a view from the inside of this fascinating place.' - The Sunday Times 'With his very adroit use of historical sources, his straightforward view, his wit and lucid style, [Warren] has written the best book available about one of the most winningly contradictory cities in the world.' - The Japan Times 'Warren's observations of the contemporary city are spot-on.' - Far Eastern Economic Review
