KUALA LUMPUR: Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad's much-awaited book, A Doctor in the House: The Memoirs of Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad, will be launched Tuesday by the MPH Group of Companies.MPH general manager Ivy Tan said the 800-page book, priced at RM100 each, "will take readers on a journey known to very few outside Tun's immediate family, from his earliest memories of childhood, including Malaya's struggles, through the sunset of British colonialism, World War II and Independence to his life as a doctor," she said in a statement issued here Monday.
She said the book, which would be released for sale at 10am, brings to life the history of Malaysia "as seen through the eyes of one who often played a vital and, in later years, decisive role in the nation's growth and development."
The book is all about the former Prime Minister's frank, candid, often humorous, and occasionally unforgiving assessment of the times he lived through and helped shape, she said.
Dr Mahathir is expected to attend the media launch of the book in Kuala Lumpur Tuesday evening. - Bernama
