This book is a personal story, a collection of snippets and anecdotes from Shaukat Hassan’s fifty plus years of eventful journey through life. The author shares many delightful incidences, the scary moments that spelt danger, and his occasional brush with death. His development work spanned six continents over a period of forty years, often placing him in the midst of crisis situations that frequently led him to question his faith in man’s capacity to govern justly. He was numbed by the death and destruction he witnessed firsthand during the Tamil-Singhalese conflict. He found himself sympathizing and working with the citizens and activists of Ukraine’s Euromaidan revolution. And he spent five years in fear of whether he would be among the next victims of Taliban bombing in Afghanistan as he worked with the Hamid Karzai and Ashraf Ghani governments to improve the governance of that country.
The book narrates the author’s work and experiences under challenging circumstances and often in hazardous environments - whether in Sri Lanka or Ukraine or Palestine or Afghanistan – with simplicity and elegance.
