The Unfinished Revolution Sun Yat-Sen and the struggle for modern China Tjio Kayloe 400 pp, 227 x 152 mm, HB, ISBN 978 981 4779 07 4, S$42.00

From rebel on the run to first president of republican China, the life of Sun Yat- sen (1866–1925) epitomizes his country’s turbulent struggle for modernity. The Unfinished Revolution is a superb new biography of Sun Yat-sen, whose life, like the confusion of his time, is not easy to interpret. His political career was marked mostly by setbacks, yet he became a cult figure in China after his death. Today he is the only 20th-century Chinese leader to be widely revered on both sides of the Taiwan Strait. In contrast, many Western historians see little in his ideas or deeds to warrant such high esteem. This book presents the most balanced account of Sun to date. politics & History Thailand: History, Politics and the Rule of Law James Wise 320 pp, 227 x 152 mm, PB, ISBN 978 981 4841 54 2, S$34.60 This introductory book on Thai politics and the rule of law explains why chronically unstable Thailand struggles to mediate and adjudicate its political disputes.

The gap between these legitimacies is narrowing but still wide. The is like a tree without roots.” book concludes by asking whether adherents to both legitimacies can agree soon – Marcus Garvey on the recasting of Thailand’s governance.

66 67 Birds of Singapore Christopher Hails & Frank Jarvis 176 pp, 227 x 152 mm, PB ISBN 978 981 4794 47 3, S$28.00 For a relatively tiny island, with such a high ratio of urban development, Singapore contains a surprisingly large number of birds – native species as well as seasonal visitors due to its strategic position on a migration route between temperate Asia and the eastern tropics. In this classic guide, Dr Christopher Hails leads the reader to all the major birdwatching habitats in Singapore, explaining changing patterns with shifting development and nature’s fascinating adaptations to urban encroachment. His scholarly insights into migration, simplified for the lay reader, are enthralling and illuminating. The illustrations have been painted by artist Frank Jarvis entirely from field sketches and, where essential, from studying skins and nests in the valued Raffles’ Collection, thus offering the highest level of accuracy in both the birds’ features and their behaviour. On the 30th anniversary of its publication, Marshall Cavendish is proud to release the paperback edition of this evergreen work, whose keenly observed illustrations and explanations have yet to be surpassed.
