The seventy-one letters presented in this volume-by Dr Mahathir, Tony Blair, Prince Charles, Margaret Thatcher, George W. Bush and Jacques Chirac, among others-argue the contrasting positions on terrorism, globalisation, economic and diplomatic relations, as well as wars and conflicts. Dr Mahathir writes directly, in his own distinctive voice and style. The correspondents were transparent, solid, informative, and sometimes robust.MalaysiaForeign relations959.5054092Ahmad AbdullahMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910829079003321Dr Mahathir's selected letters to world leaders3965429UNINA
