Watching the Thais: From the Outside Looking in

I will soon be adding a link to Amazon.com, Waterstones, and W. H. Smith, on how you can buy my new book Watching the Thais: From the Outside Looking in, which is being published by Legend Press quite soon. I am now waiting for the ISBN number to be delivered. I will also be publishing an extract, probably the first chapter here soon as well.

I will also be publishing links to magazines, especially where I have published articles, so watch this space as they say.

Here's one for now - http://www.absolutethai.com/issue-02/magazine.html Check out my features on aspects of Thailand, especially 2nd edition (with pic of Will Smith on the front cover) pp.24-27, and pp.52-53
