Exploring the Rise of Asia's New Rich.

This book could be a good read for those interested in understanding the impact of modernization on economic growth in East and Southeast Asia. The book explores the emergence of the "new rich" phenomenon in various countries and territories, identifying different socio-political groups that have inherited key features from the rapid economic growth. The unique feature of the book is that it highlights the differences between the middle classes in the West and the newly enriched business and professional class of Asia.
