The Reluctant Nation: Malaysia And Its Vain Quest For Common Purpose
With his tenth compilation of articles, Ooi Kee Beng enters new territories of thought on nation building and on Malaysian political history. He considers his writing more as learning processes for himself than as public expositions of ready thoughts in his mind. In that sense, these pieces point forward as points on an endless learning curve, and are best contemplated collectively more to understand a certain potent frame of mind and paths of thought, than as statements of facts and as claims for the reader to accept or reject. (Political Psychoanalysis /Socio-Economics & Socio-Politics)
