Men have been coming to Thailand for many years now to enjoy the infamous night-life of cities like Pattaya, Bangkok and Phuket and to experience the girls that work in the thousands of bars around them. Some have found out to their cost that there are devils amongst the young women that ply their trade in the neon-lit forests of the country and others have been lucky enough to have discovered angels. Peter Jaggs has spent the best part of the past thirty years in Thailand and his previous books about the characters and locations on the seedier side of the streets of Thailand have reached best selling status in their respective categories on Amazon's lists as well as those of other distributors and have sold thousands of copies to date. His first work, 'From Beggar to Butterfly, ' was described by the legendary Bernard Trink in a review in the Bangkok Post as one of the best books on Pattaya written. 'Thailand Bar-girls; Angels and Devils, ' is in the same genre and written in very much the same style. During more than a quarter of a century in Pattaya the author has seen and heard many tales of true love, deception and even murder and death, with Thailand's bar-girls taking the part of the main players. This book contains the very best of them. Many of the stories are funny and others are heart-warming. Some are distressing and one or two are bizarrely insane. Once again, the author has produced another work that is a must-read for anyone intending to take a stroll down the bright lights of Thailand's night-streets and it will give those who read it an unparalleled insight into the world of the country's good-time girls and hookers that will prove invaluable for anybody planning a close encounter with Thailand's bar-girls, and the angels and devils amongst them. 'Peter Jaggs is a highly skilled writer supremely confident in his craft' Daniel Schwartz, Pattaya Trader Magazine 'Jaggs is a rare kind of ex-pat, not only relishing the atmosphere of Pattaya and its charming women but he can communicate the romantic ups and downs with a perfectly targeted common touch' Richard Ravensdale, Vice President Pattaya ex-pats club

Village girls torn between two worlds indulge in sex at a very early age. Teen age pregnancy, drug use, dropping out of school and running away from home have become common. Extended families once dependent on young people for labor are left on their own. Young people escape from the villages. Some will return, to die of HIV, privately, hiding their illness silently, adding more shame to their family’s lives. Fathers and mothers and grandparents, illiterate but hard working and honest, are left wondering - How did all this come about so quickly? Why did village life centuries old break apart? This is a story about “Happy”, a young girl from a rural Thai farming village. She is a happy girl because she escaped the confines of her parent’s rice fields and the restrictions of village life, where everyone knows everyone and everyone contributes to village labor. She is happy because she is liberated from all that is loved by her farmer parents and traditional village people. She is free of farm labor and free from helping her extended family harvest rice. “Happy” is free because she entered the “entertainment industry” of Bangkok, Pattaya and Phuket, free to dance naked to the intoxicating sounds of rap music, free and happy to sell her sex. Poverty and lack of education is the sex trafficker. It is more anonymous, but its face is everywhere. It is the mother of ignorance and the father of futility. This is a story written by the only Western man living in a remote Thai village. He writes what he observes. He writes about the characters in his small village: “Happy”, “The Solder Man” and his wife, “The Pumpui Fat Lady”, “Buddhist Monks” who come to rid a place from bad spirits manifesting themselves as pests; bed bugs, cock roaches and fleas. And he writes about “Kitty” a seven year-old girl infected by HIV, brought to the village by her prostitute mother who hopes to find someone to care for “Kitty” before mama dies. It is a story of dramatic social change and the breakup of traditional Thai village life. Keywords - Thailand, Rural Thai Village Life, Prostitution, Social Change, Issan, Teen Pregnancy

A thriller with attitude to spare, Bangkok 8 is a sexy, razor-edged, often darkly hilarious novel set in one of the world’s most exotic cities. Witnessed by a throng of gaping spectators, a charismatic Marine sergeant is murdered under a Bangkok bridge inside a bolted-shut Mercedes Benz. Among the witnesses are the only two cops in the city not on the take, but within moments one is murdered and his partner, Sonchai Jitpleecheep—a devout Buddhist and the son of a Thai bar girl and a long-gone Vietnam War G.I.—is hell-bent on wreaking revenge. On a vigilante mission to capture his partner’s murderer, Sonchai is begrudgingly paired with a beautiful FBI agent named Jones and captures her heart in the process. In a city fueled by illicit drugs and infinite corruption, prostitution and priceless art, Sonchai’s quest for vengeance takes him into a world much more sinister than he could have ever imagined.

'Richly documented and convincingly presented' -- New Society Mods and Rockers, skinheads, video nasties, designer drugs, bogus asylum seeks and hoodies. Every era has its own moral panics. It was Stanley Cohen's classic account, first published in the early 1970s and regularly revised, that brought the term 'moral panic' into widespread discussion. It is an outstanding investigation of the way in which the media and often those in a position of political power define a condition, or group, as a threat to societal values and interests. Fanned by screaming media headlines, Cohen brilliantly demonstrates how this leads to such groups being marginalised and vilified in the popular imagination, inhibiting rational debate about solutions to the social problems such groups represent. Furthermore, he argues that moral panics go even further by identifying the very fault lines of power in society. Full of sharp insight and analysis, Folk Devils and Moral Panics is essential reading for anyone wanting to understand this powerful and enduring phenomenon. Professor Stanley Cohen is Emeritus Professor of Sociology at the London School of Economics. He received the Sellin-Glueck Award of the American Society of Criminology (1985) and is on the Board of the International Council on Human Rights. He is a member of the British Academy.

Sure a lot of Thai girls are good in English especially hookers. But what if you want to ask a "normal" Thai girl out for a date? There are countless of nice Thai girls that have never dated a foreigner before but would love to if you can at least speak some basic Thai. Or think of all the university girls most of them don't speak English or are too shy but how if you tell them in Thai "You are cute, do you want to go for dinner with me?" Imagine how many more Thai girls you can meet if you know some really useful Thai vocabulary and phrases! Leaving alone to impress girls no matter if they speak English or not. And not just for arranging quick dates - if you are in a relationship with a Thai girl it does make sense to know how to ask her if she's horny or ask her to undress. You will learn all this and much more in this book. The Thai Love Course is divided into two parts: The first part is about teaching you all the language skills you need in order to talk to Thai girls confidently. There are 6 lessons: 1. Courting / Arranging a Date Learn everything from "What's your name?", "Where do you go?", "You are cute" to "Are you free tonight?" and "Do you want to have a meal together?" Step by step from the first thing you tell her to arranging a date. 2. During the Date / Bring her back to your room Once it's time to meet her and take her out for the date you will have a repertoire of more than enough questions and statements to convince her to go back to your or her room like "It's hot here, isn't it?", "Do you live alone?", "Do you want to watch a movie in my room?" and many more. 3. In the Apartment / Making Love The tools for your bedroom: "I love your skin", "Can I hug you?", "Can I kiss you?", "Don't be shy" to "What is your favorite position? ", "Does it hurt?", "That feels good?" are just a few things you will be able to tell your girl. 4. Talking about Feelings If you want to be able to ask your honey why she loves you as well as understanding her answer - this chapter provides all relevant words and phrases you need to know. Also including useful tools for pickup lines ("You are so kind", "I don't want to sleep alone", "Do you want to be my girlfriend?" etc). 5. Breaking up Sooner or later you may want to end the relationship with your Thai girl and rather than ignoring her messages there are several ways to tell her that it's over and also give a reason for it ("You don't care about me at all", "You barely call me", "It's better we break up" etc). 6. Talking to Bar Girls / Hookers There is not one foreigner that I know who comes to Thailand on holiday or lives here permanently and has not been in "contact" with Thai bar girls. So in the final chapter you'll find everything related to talking to bar girls and hookers ("What time do you finish work? ", "I want to take you outside", "How much do you want?", "That's too much" etc). You'll love this one. Each chapter has a list of relevant vocabulary followed by useful sentences for real conversations. Everything comes in English, Thai transliteration and Thai script. The second part is about understanding the way Thai girls are thinking and what they expect from you in a relationship. Plus bonus content including Pick Up Lines that really work and the most important Isaan Words.
