Recenzii
`Professor Smith has produced a concise and well-ordered textbook, which covers a wide range of development issues in the region by a clever use of case studies ... not here the unalloyed success stories of economic growth records, but rather a sharp focus on looking far behind and underneath the very real problems accentuated or caused by that very commitment to growth, often at all costs.' - Asian Affairs
`The most fascinating features of the volume...are found in a good number of the really interesting, detailed sample studies, often small vignettes, focusing on, for instance, the occupations of village migrants in the urban areas of West Java or the solutions to the transport problems of Singapore and Kuala Lumpur ... most welcome and valuable.' - Geography
`Pacific Asia is an attractive book and highly recommended for self-study as a quick introduction and a case study of concrete illustrations of development problems.' - Tijdschrift voor Economische en Sociale Geografie
