Synopsis:
In his twenty-two years as Prime Minister of Malaysia, Dr. Mahathir Mohamad transformed his country from an agricultural backwater into an industrial powerhouse that would become the seventeenth-largest trading nation in the world. This remarkable achievement was not without controversy, and Dr. Mahathir’s extraordinary vision and iron grip earned him both enemies as well as ardent admirers within and outside of Malaysia. He has been described—typically and paradoxically—as a tyrannical dictator, a bête noir, as well as inspiring, courageous, and an outspoken defender of the downtrodden, the Third World, and moderate Islam. At almost every turn Dr. Mahathir rewrote the rules.
