"Timely and highly readable, a must for anyone in Asia daring to get into a business deal, make a deposit in a bank, or even buy a share." Anthony Paul Editor-at-Large (Asia) Fortune "Backman has uncovered a vast amount of hard-to-find information. On top of that, he has brought these characters to life and provides a crucial missing link in the coverage of business in Asia." Justin Doebele Forbes Global "This book gathers together, like no other volume I've seen, a stupendous catalogue of business shortcomings and outright commercial mischief occurring in Asia during the long years of unparalleled prosperity."
