'[Lee Kuan Yew's Strategic Thought] by a distinguished Singaporean historian of the Cold War in South East Asia, [is] a close and detailed reading and analysis of Lee Kuan Yew's expressions, through speeches and articles, on the evolution of regional international relations from before Singapore's expulsion from Malaysia in 1965 to the near present. [It is] a thoroughly documented account of Singapore's attempts to come to terms with regional and global changes both during and subsequent to the Cold War.' – Robert H.
