Western thinkers and philosophers opine that man is at the centre of the universe. This man-universe views is based on scientific thinking, on facts, evidence, human logic, and on cause-and-effect discourse.
The Malay society appears to have an alternate view, saying in effect, no, it's not man at the centre, but God. It's based on perception, belief, opinions. This book looks into the experiences of this country under the leadership of the Ketuanan Melayu polity, habitually adopting this stance in its public policy considerations. The result have not been exciting or inspiring.
