Arsitektur Melayu: Rumah Tradisional dalam Sketsa dan Lensa
Rumah dalam kehidupan orang Melayu tidak hanya sebagai tempat berlindung, namun merupakan wadah perlambang kesempurnaan dalam mengekspresikan hubungan antara sesama, komunitas, dan lingkungan sekitar dalam kehidupan kosmis keseharian dari waktu ke waktu. Syarat dengan symbol, nilai dan makna budaya tempatan, menjadikan rumah Melayu sebagai pembuktian akumulasi ikatan emosional dan tradisi. Kehidupan bertradisi tercermin dengan jelas dari berbagai corak ragam senibina rumah Melayu tradisional yang tersebar pada perkampungan di sepanjang aliran sungai. Berawal dari puak-puak kebudayaan ini-lah rumah Melayu tradisional menjelma sebagai referensi penting dalam keberlanjutan arsitektur Melayu dimasa datang.
The Malay House
"Fully illustrated by full-colour photographs and three-demensional drawings, this book documents the architecture of the traditional Malay house, giving details of the various housetypes, the construction system, the climatic design and the adaptations to the social and cultural needs of the Malays".--BOOKJACKET.
The Malays
The Malays as an ethnic group has been defined on the basis of both legal-constitutional and historical-cultural factors. While it is difficult to speculate or visualise correctly the future of any country or people, it is possible to provide a general outline of the trends of the past and present, and probably attempt to at least indicate what should be avoided and promoted to ensure a better future. This is what Dr Syed Husin Ali attempts in this book. In nine chapters, he discusses the Malays and their origin, history, religion, economy, politics and development up to the present day. He connects all of these to the various changes in the forms of modernisation and development programmes which affected, and continue to impact upon, the Malays. Three decades have passed since the book was first published. During that time many changes have taken place in the country. But the basic problems facing the Malays, contends the writer, have remained the same. The current controversies on the declining power of the Malays, as perceived by some, affirm these problems, and make the book more relevant.

Design Rules: The power of modularity
We live in a dynamic economic and commerical world, surrounded by objects of remarkable complexity and power. In many industries, changes in products and technologies have brought with them new kinds of firms and forms of organization. We are discovering news ways of structuring work, of bringing buyers and sellers together, and of creating and using market information. Although our fast-moving economy often seems to be outside of our influence or control, human beings create the things that create the market forces. Devices, software programs, production processes, contracts, firms, and markets are all the fruit of purposeful action: they are designed. Using the computer industry as an exam...
