This is the best tourist map of bangkok and I recommend this above any other map or guidebook. It is especially good if you want to SHOP!.
It is available from major bookstores in Bangkok. In the UK I found it difficult to obtain. The only website I have found is www.tripneeds.com
Bangkok Pages fills a void by providing an easy-to-use web directory with a detailed map, directions and distances.
Look out for the free city maps as you come through the airport on your way in; they are on a stand in baggage reclaim, right after immigration. The maps are up-to-date, colourful and have the major attractions, hotels and shopping malls clearly marked. I get one every time I go through.
It's a tourist map with the emphasis on shopping. I agree with the postings that say it's useful, but don't rely on it alone. Unfortunately, Chandler's calligraphic excesses sometimes get in the way of simple navigation. She's good for telling you where the shops are, but she'd never get a job with Ordnance Survey.
Buy it in hostels and tourist areas.
A pocket-sized map of Bangkok with great recommendations for sightseeing, restaurants, shopping etc. Really handy and better than carrying a big guidebook.
It's available at most hotels, guesthouses and bookshops in Bangkok.
