Abstract: The return of peace to Cambodia has coincided with the appearance of a large number of new books on the country. The works under discussion here form an exception to most of the new publications in that they are the results of long-term research and restoration projects. The works reviewed here fall into two distinct groups. The reports of the Japanese-led restoration teams are highly technical and will mainly attract a specialist audience. The books by French architectural historian Jacques Dumarçay, on the other hand, are meant for a general audience.
