 Out Of Date December 17, 2002

This is a great book with beautiful pictures, maps and nice glossy color pages. The only problem being that it is out of date! Having said that, I would not recommend it for your guide book if travelling to Thailand. Wait for an updated issue.
I am well travelled in Thailand and some of the descriptions in the book make me feel like I was travelling in Thailand 20 years ago! Hope this helps...

There are detailed graphics, maps, and explanations of cultural issues not found in other guide books. However, they exclude major attractions and maps and attractions can be severely inaccurate. It's good for preparing a trip, but it's too heavy and not helpful enough to bring with you.

This is by far the best travel book on Thailand I've found so far. It had everything I needed to plan my trip, and the pictures were beautiful.
Accurate, even from a Thai point of view August 21, 2000

As a Thai, I found this book surprisingly accurate to a certain degree. Even to some notorious aspects about Thailand, it provides some truthful information rather than worse-than-reality stuff for those potically correct issues. The graphics is amazing and precise in terms of Thai architecture (I'm an architect). Another compliment goes to some inside info e.g. shopping districts and local customs. I even decided to buy a copy myself even though it's my own country as a good intro to Thailand whenever my Ameican friends ask me to describe it which they usually do. I recommend this book for people who search for cultural aspect rather than hotels and restaurants. I'm using some books from this very series to travel in Europ too.
