From Third World to First: The Singapore Story - 1965-2000
Few gave tiny Singapore much chance of survival when it was granted independence in 1965. How is it, then, that today the former British colonial trading post is a thriving Asian metropolis with not only the world's number one airline, best airport, and busiest port of trade, but also the world's fourth & ndash;highest per capita real income? The story of that transformation is told here by Singapore's charismatic, controversial founding father, Lee Kuan Yew. Rising from a legacy of divisive colonialism, the devastation of the Second World War, and general poverty and disorder following the withdrawal of foreign forces, Singapore now is hailed as a city of the future. This miraculous history is dramatically recounted by the man who not only lived through it all but who fearlessly forged ahead and brought about most of these changes. Delving deep into his own meticulous notes, as well as previously unpublished government papers and official records, Lee details the extraordinary efforts it took for an island city & ndash;state in Southeast Asia to survive at that time. Lee explains how he and his cabinet colleagues finished off the communist threat to the fledgling state's security and began the arduous process of nation building: forging basic infrastructural roads through a land that still consisted primarily of swamps, creating an army from a hitherto racially and ideologically divided population, stamping out the last vestiges of colonial & ndash;era corruption, providing mass public housing, and establishing a national airline and airport. In this illuminating account, Lee writes frankly about his trenchant approach to political opponents and his often unorthodox views on human rights, democracy, and inherited intelligence, aiming always "to be correct, not politically correct." Nothing in Singapore escaped his watchful eye: whether choosing shrubs for the greening of the country, restoring the romance of the historic Raffles Hotel, or openly, unabashedly persuading young men to marry women as well educated as themselves. Today's safe, tidy Singapore bears Lee's unmistakable stamp, for which he is unapologetic: "If this is a nanny state, I am proud to have fostered one." Though Lee's domestic canvas in Singapore was small, his vigor and talent assured him a larger place in world affairs. With inimitable style, he brings history to life with cogent analyses of some of the greatest strategic issues of recent times and reveals how, over the years, he navigated the shifting tides of relations among America, China, and Taiwan, acting as confidant, sounding board, and messenger for them. He also includes candid, sometimes acerbic pen portraits of his political peers, including the indomitable Margaret Thatcher and Ronald Reagan, the poetry & ndash;spouting Jiang Zemin, and ideologues George Bush and Deng Xiaoping. Lee also lifts the veil on his family life and writes tenderly of his wife and stalwart partner, Kwa Geok Choo, and of their pride in their three children & ndash; & ndash; particularly the eldest son, Hsien Loong, who is now Singapore's deputy prime minister. For more than three decades, Lee Kuan Yew has been praised and vilified in equal measure, and he has established himself as a force impossible to ignore in Asian and international politics. From Third World to First offers readers a compelling glimpse into this visionary's heart, soul, and mind.

The Secret By Rhonda Byrne
The Secret was first published in 2006, along with the release of a movie version of the same name. This self-help book aims to show people how they can change their lives for the better and achieve success in all aspects of their lives. This is the Tamil edition of the bestselling book. According to the author, the power of thoughts can shape lives. If people have positive attitude and express gratitude for things they already have and visualize their desires, it opens up opportunities for those desires to become reality. The author believes that the whole universe is governed by the law of attraction. The power of this law can help fulfill a person s desire if they tune in to the right frequency through their thoughts. Thus, positive thoughts attract positive results. Thoughts, both negative and positive, have the power to influence events. For instance, anger invites experiences that cause a person to feel aggressive. Positive feelings attract positive events. Carrying this further through visualization can help people actually get whatever they want, according to the author. She places special emphasis on gratitude and visualization. The feeling of gratitude gives off a positive frequency that attracts good things. Visualization helps translate that power into objects that we desire.

Presented in three volumes, this exquisitely narrated memoir, is intensely personal, broadly nationalistic and international, told by this sojourner of Nigerian and world history, Olusegun Mathew Okikiola Aremu Obasanjo.

Politics Among Nations By Hans Morgenthau-Kenneth W Thompson & David Clinton
Politics Among Nations by Hans Morgenthau, Kenneth W Thompson,David Clinton.Hans Morgenthau's Classic text established realism as the fundamental way of thinking about international relations. Although it has had its critics, the fact that it continues to be the most long lived text for courses in international relations attests to its enduring value. Someone has said the study of international relations has for half a century been nothing so much as a dialogue between Morgenthau, those who embrace his approach, and those who turn elsewhere for enlightenment. After 50 years, the dialogue between Morgenthau and scholars from around the world continues more or less as in the past, something with more intensity even in an "age of terror."The seventh edition preserves intact Morgenthau's work while adding a 40 page introduction by the editors who explore its relevance for a new era. What follows the introduction are the perspectives of a dozen statesmen, scholars, and observers each offering insights on Morgenthau's concepts and ideas as they relate to current crises on every continent. They bring up to date the dialogue that began in 1948.

Oil - Politics And Violence - Nigeria’s Military Coup Culture - 1966-1976 By Max Siollun
Oil, Politics and Violence: Nigeria & rsquo;s Military Coup Culture (1966-1976) by Max Siollun This is a ground breaking book by historian Max Siollun about the relationship between oil and military rule in Nigeria. Modern Nigeria cannot be understood without reference to its era of military rule. Military rule and oil wealth effected cataclysmic changes in Nigeria that nearly tore the country apart on several occasions. 40 years after the end of the Nigeria-Biafra civil war, Max Siollun answers the key questions that go to the root of the Nigerian nation:*Who were the key personalities and events that caused the Nigeria/Biafra civil war?*What is the root of the Niger Delta oil conflict and the "curse of oil"?*How has Nigeria managed to endure successive military coups, civil war, ethnic violence and still remain united?*The role of Babangida, Ojukwu, Abacha, Obasanjo, Yar'Adua and Buhari in previous military coup plots and Nigerian governments.The book's style is that of a fast paced dramatised narrative that will bring the characters and the story to life in a manner that will engage the casual, journalistic or academic reader. Those who have read the book have described it as the most detailed published analysis of the major events and controversies of Nigeria from independence until the 1976 assassination of its then Head of State General Murtala Muhammed. These include the traumatic January and July coups of 1966, the unprecedented magnanimity of the federal leader General Gowon after Nigeria's civil war, the post war stewardship of Gowon, and an hour by hour reconstruction of the events leading up to the 1976 Dimka coup in which Gowon's successor General Murtala Muhammed was killed.The book is the definitive reference point for Nigeria's political life between 1960 and 1976. It examines the controversies of that era with the encyclopaedic detail and penetrating analysis that is Max Siollun's trademark. No previous text has exhaustively analysed these events or this period in Nigeria's history. What lessons can be learned from the events and mistakes of this period? How can Nigeria avoid repeating those mistakes? Max Siollun answers these questions and many more. Review "I cannot commend this book too highly... this book is a revelation". - Kaye Whiteman (Business Day)"The most comprehensive and authentic documentation on the Nigerian coup and counter coup of 1966 and the Biafran War that I have ever seen ." - Former Australian High Commissioner to Nigeria About the Author Max Siollun is a historian and commentator on Nigerian political and governmental issues, specializing in Nigerian history and the Nigerian military's participation in politics.

Policy Matters By Jose Antonio Ocampo, Jomo K.s., Sarbuland Khan
Economic and Social Policies to Sustain Equitable Development. In 2000 the UN pledged to halve world poverty by 2015 as part of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), but progress has been elusive, and consensus difficult to achieve. These papers reveal disparate problems faced by the UN in developing a coherent Development Agenda, from the complex effects of trade and finance liberalization to the damaging realities of development aid, itself a central pillar of the MDGs. The unifying theme is one of economic and social integration, and an emphasis on long-term strategic investment in education, health and infrastructure. By challenging mainstream economic thought, this book is required reading for students, academics and activists wanting to engage in the debate, and help the MDGs reach a positive conclusion.

What Britain Did To Nigeria: A Short History of Conquest And Rule by Max Siollun
What Britain Did to Nigeria: A Short History of Conquest and Rule by Max Siollun Most accounts of Nigeria's colonisation were written by British officials, presenting it as a noble civilising mission to rid Africans of barbaric superstition and corrupt tribal leadership. Thanks to this skewed writing of history, many Nigerians today still have Empire nostalgia and view thecolonial period through rose-tinted glasses.Max Siollun offers a bold rethink: an unromanticised history, arguing compellingly that colonialism had few benevolent intentions, but many unjust outcomes. It may have ended slavery and human sacrifice, but it was accompanied by extreme violence; ethnic and religious identity were cynicallyexploited to maintain control, while the forceful remoulding of longstanding legal and social practices permanently altered the culture and internal politics of indigenous communities. The aftershocks of this colonial meddling are still being felt decades after independence. Popular narratives oftensuggest that the economic and political turmoil are homegrown, but the reality is that Britain created many of Nigeria's crises, and has left them behind for Nigerians to resolve.This is a definitive, head-on confrontation with Nigeria's experience under British rule, showing how it forever changed the country--perhaps cataclysmically. Review " What Britain Did to Nigeria is a nuanced, informative and timely book that powerfully captures the complexity of the colonial impact."-- Olivette Otele, author of African Europeans: An Untold History "A humanizing and unyielding account of the actors who partook in the making of modern Nigeria, emphasising the scandals and clandestine colonial operations absent from mainstream narratives. It is an unvarnished account of the abuse of power by what was once the most powerful empire on the planet.By the end of this book, the line between savagery and civilization becomes indelibly blurred." -- Gimba Kakanda, writer, foreign policy analyst and columnist, Daily Trust "A must-read for anyone interested in the story of Britain's colonial encounter with Nigeria. Siollun tells this complex story from a Nigerian perspective while never once abandoning his objective eye, the mark of the truly-committed historian. [...] His vast knowledge and down-to-earth writingstyle have combined to produce a book that is both educative and enjoyable to read, one that shows colonialism in all its human complexities and contradictions. A fantastic accomplishment." -- Remi Adekoya, University of York, author of Biracial Britain: A Different Way of Looking at Race "Max Siollun has conducted extraordinary research which places the history of one of the most important English-speaking countries on earth in a new light. This is a compelling, brilliant and brave history of Nigeria and British colonialism."-- Toby Green, author of A Fistful of Shells: West Africafrom the Rise of the Slave Trade to the Age of Revolution"Siollun's evenhanded assessment of the roughly 60 years of colonial rule that followed is also absorbing, particularly his description of Nigerian resistance to the various injustices and humiliations inflicted by the British." --Foreign Affairs, Nicholar van de Walle "It is, to say the least, a complex story, but Siollun gets to the heart of it, offering a cogent analysis of the development of slavery and the lucrative trade in rubber, in palm oil as well as the livestock and cereals industries and the wholesale exploitation involved." --RTE, Paddy Kehoe."The British Empire is often presenteed as an endeavour that conqured territory, carried out atrocities, and looted resources. Max Siollun's 'What Britain Did to Nigeria' provides some evidence to support that case. But Siollun also provides much-needed nuance: British colonialism in Nigeria wascharacterised by a tension between the colonial government and the work of missionaries." --History Today, Tomiwa Owolade."Balanced and illuminating... Siollun shatters the comfortable assumption that the transition from pre-colonial to colonial government in what became Nigeria avoided... monstrous bloodshed." -- The Article "An intriguing new history of the British presence in Nigeria...Max Siollun writes a powerful corrective to the historical record, one that successfully argues that we cannot understand Nigeria today without examining its colonial past."-- Georgetown Security Studies Review What Britain Did to Nigeria: A Short History of Conquest and Rule by Max Siollun "Max Siollun offers a bold rethink: an unromanticised history, arguing compellingly that colonialism had few benevolent intentions, but many unjust outcomes. [...] This is a definitive, head-on confrontation with Nigeria's experience under British rule, showing how it forever changed thecountry-perhaps cataclysmically."-- BookAuthority, '23 Best New Slavery Books To Read In 2021' About the Author Max Siollun is a historian and author who specializes in Nigeria's history. He has written some of the most acclaimed books on Nigeria's history, and has been described as standing "unchallenged, in contemporary times, as the Chronicler-in-Chief of the Nigerian military" by the Special Assistant onNew Media to Nigeria's President Buhari, Tolu Ogunlesi.

Dear Ijeawele, Or A Feminist Manifesto In Fifteen Suggestions - Nlp Vlisco Edition
A few years ago, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie received a letter from a dear friend from childhood, asking her how to raise her baby girl as a feminist. Dear Ijeawele is Adichie & rsquo;s letter of response. Here are fifteen invaluable suggestions-compelling, direct, wryly funny, and perceptive-for how to empower a daughter to become a strong, independent woman. From encouraging her to choose a helicopter, and not only a doll, as a toy if she so desires; having open conversations with her about clothes, makeup, and sexuality; debunking the myth that women are somehow biologically arranged to be in the kitchen making dinner, and that men can & ldquo;allow & rdquo; women to have full careers, Dear Ijeawele goes right to the heart of politics in the twenty-first century. It will start a new and urgently needed conversation about what it really means to be a woman today. This new edition by Narrative Landscape Press was designed in collaboration with Vlisco, the wax print textile company.
