One of my favorite travel books. Pico Iyer is a great writer and vividly captures the many oddities of the intersections of western technology and culture into the east. Funny and yet respectful of the many different cultures, Iyer captures the small bits and pieces of the ways these two cultures are intersecting and clashing.
