Publisher Description
Cambodia Today When my students in Asian studies think of Cambodia, two names quickly come to mind: Angkor Wat and Pol Pot. Angkor Wat brings images of the incredible ruins of huge, ancient temples and palaces only recently recovered from the jungle, while Pol Pot casts horror scenes of killing fields, genocide, and the virtual death of a nation. Ironically these two images today are annually drawing hundreds of thousands of tourists to Cambodia (a million are expected in 2006).
