Bangkok bewilders the visitor with its alloy of fad and tradition, ad-hoc and hi-tech, sacred and profane. Author of the groundbreaking Very Thai and bestselling guidebook Time Out Bangkok, Philip Cornwel-Smith untangles the Thai capital to reveal the local logic of a world city. Unjumble the architecture, ecosystems, ethnicities and beliefs, using maps, listings and sly navigations. Penetrate the social maze - hi-so, lo-so, hip or indy, online or unofficial. Connect with contemporary fashion, arts and food. Find the keys to Bangkok's hidden heart and many lives.
