The Challenge (Mahathir Mohamad)

Dr. Mahathir Mohamad, Malaysia's fourth Prime Minister, is known for his original ideas and incisive plain speaking. Both traits are grippingly evident in “The Challenge”, where he takes a hard look at certain ways of thinking and living that are vying for supremacy in the modern world in general, and Malaysia's Malay community in particular. With characteristic directness he explodes fallacies and exposes distortions concerning Islam, communism, freedom and discipline, and the concerns of this world and the next.
