I love to browse bookshops and book stores. In Bangkok airport, there are lots of bookstores. Although the selections are not wide, they do carry interesting books. If you like Buddhism, there are lot of books on Buddhism and Thai monks. If you can read Thai, there are plentiful of titles by monks. Obviously, Buddhism is widely practised in Thailand.
My business partner and friend, Sammin, a very capable, young and pretty lady is a devoted Buddhist. She just visited a temple who house AIDS victims, all kids. She does donations to help repair temple's roof, build school, repair and maintain rundown temple. I respect her a lot. In my opinion, she is doing good deeds and maintaining good karma. She is another model for me to emulate.

Hi, just to share with you that you can get many different varieties of Buddhist books for free at the Awareness Bookshop at the Bra Basa building where it houses all the book and arts shop just beside the National Library. Some are in comic and portable form. Personally, I like the Settling back into the moment.
SL, thanks! I will go to look for it again. My favourite is the same as yours. You can get the original from Whatever bookstore in Keong Saik street.
