Description:
Preface to the Third Edition:
"Since the first version of this bibliography was released in 2012, the outpouring of books, reports and other
publications about Burma (Myanmar) that was noted in earlier editions has continued. Indeed, over the past few
years it seems to have picked up in both pace and range, although not always in quality. As one observer bluntly
put it a few years ago, ?There is a vast quantity of literature on Burma/Myanmar, some of it quite
unreadable?.
While many of these works have been posted online, and are only available in soft copy, most have been
released in hard copy, and in English. Even if the print run was quite small, this has entitled them to a mention in
this third and expanded edition. The newest works fall into a number of categories, which can easily be identified
by comparing the contents pages above with those of earlier editions. Broadly speaking, they cover academic works, official reports, travelogues and tourist guides, books for the general reader, and older works that have
been reprinted to meet a popular demand..."
