Reviews
"...Thailand's Economic Recovery solidly stands the test of time. The short introduction by John Funston, who also discusses Thailand's southern insurgency in the concluding chapter, is concise and useful for a rapid grasp of the book's main thrust. Overall, this book's content is not outdated. Its major themes and issues are still at the core of what shakes and moves Thailand today. As such, it makes fitting reference reading, not to be left out of any respectable book collection on studies of Thailand" (South East Asia Research).
