Years of Living Dangerously: Asia - From Financial Crisis to the New Millenium

by Stephen Vines

In The Year's of Living Dangerously, leading Asia writer and commentator Stephen Vines paints a vivid picture of excess and ignorance, challenging some of the well-established myths about Asian economies, governments, companies and markets.

[Joshua · Rating 5 out of 5]

I literally lived some of this book. I was in Indonesia prior to and during the peak of the Asian Financial Crisis. This book really hit home. If you're interested in the subject read it. If you have no stake or interest it will probably not be very interesting.
