In this work, the authors look at an Asia which is bouncing back, an A sia which has paradoxically benefitted enormously from the recent crises and which has the potential to change the world. The book paints a kaleidoscopic picture of Asian life as it is now through the many people caught up in the swirl of events; people as varied as Salamet, an Indonesian rioter worried about sorcerers, and Son, the billionaire head of Softbank in Japan.
