New. Although this collection of essays is subtitled “Malaysia under Abdullah,” i.e. Abdullah Badawi, the immediate successor as premier to the better known Mahathir, the book has a much greater breadth than this. In fact the author, demonstrating his considerable scholarship, takes us back to the foundations of the country and forward to speculations about its future giving us much to ponder as the country tries to find its way after Mahathir’s resignation. The book’s 196 pages are divided into sections on 1 – History and Home Affairs, 2 – Race & Religion, 3 – Tun Dr Ismail, 4 – Nation Building & 5 – The Region. Weight: 0.5kg. Post free within Malaysia.
