    Author Shaharuddin b. Maaruf
    “Book Descriptions: This book invites the Malay masses to take a closer look at themselves and their social, political, economic and cultural values. It diagnoses the problems and shortcomings of their popular social philosophy through a study of the conception of the hero image among Malay populace.

    Are the great acts, feats and deeds of traditional Malay heroes always pure in motive? Is there an awareness that there are conflicts between certain fundamental traditional values? Are these values fettered by the feudal past? These are but some of the questions answered by the author.

    Reactions from the public to Shaharuddin bin Maaruf's theses may differ; ut, in all, readers will certainly attain a better understanding of Malay politics and cultural life.

    A book for all thinking Malaysians.
