Hardcover. Presumed First Edition, First printing. 196 pages. Map. Illustrations (many in color). Index. Format is approximately 7.5 inches by 9 inches. This is one of the Rockefeller Foundation Centennial Series, Innovation for the Next 100 Years. Published in association with Vantage Point Historical Services, Inc. Preface from Dr. Judith Rodin. Forward by Prawase Wasi. From a review posted on-line: To mark the centenary of its establishment in 1913, the Rockefeller Foundation has published six volumes on its history. The sixth ? written by the eminent historian of American business and of the international economy William Becker ? focuses on the foundation?s work in Thailand, dating to 1915. That the Rockefeller Foundation should single out its work in Thailand through this publication is in itself worth remarking on. That it chose to do so when rival conceptions of Thailand are the cause of great disharmony makes the decision still more noteworthy. At the centre of this disharmony is the question of the most appropriate relationship in twenty-first-century Thailand among society, state and the monarchy. But the foundation?s century of experience, its institutional memory and rich archival record mean that the volume allows for unique insight into its understanding of the relationship between its activities and major developments in Thailand?s recent history.
