title: The Buddha on Mecca's Verandah: Encounters, Mobilities, and Histories Along the Malaysian-Thai border (Critical Dialogues in Southeast Asian Studies)
author:  Irving Chan Johnson 
description: "Johnsons careful documentation of local histories is an important contribution and gives unusual time depth to his discussion of contemporary ethnic identification. Consequently, this book is a valuable addition to studies of Thai ethnicities, particularly the complex formations of Thai-ness that take shape on and around the borders of Thailand."Mary Beth Mills, <i>Pacific Affairs: Volume 86</i>, No. 4 December 2013
