Abstract
Many books have been written about Thai education but this book, “Education in Thailand: An Old Elephant in Search of a New Mahout”, truly gives comprehensive information about the educational system of this country in almost all aspects. The editor starts the book by making certain that the readers will understand “Thainess” and how this unique background in the past five decades has continued to shape the present Thai educational system.
