This compilation of over 40 essays written between 2001 and 2011 covers a variety of topics ranging from politics and economics to law and religion, and parallels his involvement in the politics of Malaysia. It provides a unique window into not only the author’s coming of age but also of Malaysia’s Reformasi movement, and is his clarion call for justice and freedom. “I do not in any way claim to be the exemplar of my generation – but if young Malaysians are to one day take on the mantle of leadership, if we are to move Malaysia forward, then we must stand up and articulate our vision for it.”

Law and Society in Malaysia
This book provides a systematic and interdisciplinary examination of law and legal institutions in Malaysia. It examines legal issues from historical, social, and political perspectives, and discusses the role of law in relation to Malaysian multiculturalism, religion, politics, and society. It shows how the Malaysian legal system is at the heart of debates about how to deal with the country's problems, which include ethnic and religious divisions, uneven and unsustainable development, and political authoritarianism; and it argues that the Malaysian legal system has much to teach other plural polities, nations within the common law tradition, and federal states.
