As a Eurasian, a nationalist, a communist and then a democratic socialist, as a journalist and a writer, he represents the insurgent energies of a truculent time when a nascent nation was seeking the basis of statehood. His commitment to progressive ideas and movements reveals a man of integrity in search of himself in a better world. This book seeks to portray his place in time, particularly for younger Singaporeans who did not live in an era that has inaugurated the history of independent Singapore.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"ISEAS - Yusof Ishak Institute","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52652881805592,"sku":"9789814620680","price":15.26,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/the-life-and-times-of-gerald-de-cruz-a-singaporean-of-many-worlds-paperback-softback-9789814620680","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
