BOOK REVIEW | Thinkers like Syed Hussein needed more than ever

BOOK REVIEW | Firstly I should say that “The Life in the Writing” (Gerakbudaya, 240 pages) is not entirely a new book but an updated edition of a work first published in 2010.

Focussing on the literary side of academic/politician Syed Hussein Alatas (1928-2007), it is penned by his daughter Masturah and this revision boldly promises exclusive new content.
