Democracy appears increasingly distant. Freedom of speech is routinely denied. He provides a comprehensive explanation that makes sense of the crisis for the first time, revealing the unacknowledged succession conflict that has become entangled with the struggle for democracy in Thailand.. Long dreaded by Thais, the death of King Bhumibol Adulyadej is expected to unleash even greater instability. Scores have been killed on the streets of Bangkok. Breaking Thailand's draconian lese majesté Andrew MacGregor Marshall is one of the only journalists covering contemporary Thailand who tells the whole story. Struggling to emerge from a despotic past, Thailand stands at a defining moment in its history. Yet in spite of the impact of the crisis, and the extraordinary importance of the royal succession, they have never been comprehensively analyzed, because Thailand's draconian lese majesté law has silenced most discussion - until now

“An explosive analysis that lays bare what the Thai elite has tried to keep hidden for decades. A clear-eyed view of what is really at stake in Thailand's continuing turmoil.”

Three Stars Really offers nothing new if you have a knowledge of Thai history or read the Bnagkok Post regularly. Behind the smiles beenthere Asia's most popular tourist destination, the "Land of Smiles" has been the subject of more books – and novels (too often about the nocturnal "conquests" of middle-aged white men, and the ensuing noirish cultural-clash consequences that ensue) – than anywhere else i. although I would add that the best journalism is ultimately a work of love In Thailand the truth does not set you free. Journalist Andrew MacGregor Marshall's powerful and persuasive book on the role of the succession crisis in Thailand's current nightmare will be banned there. The debased military junta does not allow the Thai people to be "unhappy"
