Title: Excellent personal, geographic and political journey
Product review: We will shortly be living in Malaysia for 10 months and wanted a non-tourist introduction to the society and culture. This book is a highly personal and, therefore, highly biased, narrative, by a native of the soil (bumiputra) with an unusually mixed background, who has grown up as Malaysia became a country. At that, it is extremely well-written, both in language and structure. It examines modern Malaysia's history and visits many of its major towns, as seen by the eye of a hopeful-but-critical citizen. Of course we could not judge its factual accuracy but the tone and thoroughness are quite credible and we recommend the book highly.
