Reviews"This book is a useful resource...one of its more important contributions is that it presents valuable insights into the notion of globalising Southeast Asia and how people deal with this in different parts of Southeast Asia, including the confusion experienced in facing it." The Asia-Pacific Journal of Anthropology "The papers are well written and as a whole relate well to the overall theme of the book. In this regard, the book is a fine example of how much anthropology has to offer studies of globalization." Asian Anthropology "For those who treasure the diversity and richness of Southeast Asian cultures, and relish the vitality, ingenuity and perseverance of its peoples, the collective message [of this book] is very encouraging ... It makes great 'escapist reading' from the currently depressing international scene, and deserves a wide readership by all concerned with the risks, uncertainties and threats of volatile (and manipulated) globalization. All Southeast Asian aficionados can look forward to a smorgasbord of inspiration from this collection, and hopefully from the future volumes in this series."
