4.0 out of 5 stars Useful but sometimes very general !, 25 April 2001
By A Customer
I bought the first the first edition of this book and I read it in 1 night. I found it very interesting and a with a very special writing style. The short stories included in each chapter from real experiences are really advisable in preparing a trip.

Once in Asia (Tokyo) for studying I read it again several times to plan a big trip after my studies. I think the book concentrates in many places for long trips and it is not useful for a short trip trough Asia for the very "first time". Particularly, I would like next editions of these book will include ideas for routes of trips beginning in Asia. Also, it must include data about travel agencies in Asia that the authors who has traveled here for more than 15 years, should know. As language is particularly a barrier in all these countries, all we would hope English speaking in those agencies.

But anyway, I strongly recommend this book. It is very useful to plan a trip according to particular interests.
