Reviews

The book should be commended for its two major contributions. First, it provides a good survey of a region that is often neglected in management and business studies...Second, the book touches on the two issues that are not commonly linked to one another - religion and business practices. - Dr Pavida Panamond, South East Asia Research, Vol 18. No 4 (December 2010) Rich in insights and elegant in presentation, the book is well documented and thoroughly researched. It represents a welcome and original contribution to the study of Theravada Buddhism, and offers new directions for future research. It is to be highly recommended to researchers, students, and practitioners alike who seek to gain both stimulating theoretical and more practical insights into Theravada Buddhist countries of Southeast Asia.
