    de 吉萬‧瓦薩加爾（Jeevan Vasagar） ...
    Traducido por 林佳妮 ...
    從荒蕪小島到全球最強城邦：揭開新加坡躍升世界頂尖經濟體的歷史關鍵----　　歷經二戰洗禮與戰後動盪，新加坡在1965年突遭馬來西亞聯邦驅逐而被迫獨立，頓時陷入生死存亡危機。當時，這座位於赤道以北一度的小島缺乏資源、種族複雜、經濟脆弱，還得面對周邊鄰國的敵意與威脅。建國總理李光耀憑藉著鐵血意志與遠見，將這個充滿劣勢的小島，打造成亞洲第一座全球化的國際大都市。　　《獅城》深入審視新加坡生活的各個面向──從教育、醫療到藝術、政治與人口挑戰──揭示了李光耀如何在短短半個世紀內，鍛造出一個經濟蓬勃發展且擁有鮮明國家認同的國度。同時，本書也探討了這項成就背後較為黑暗的一面：透過高壓的威權管治，使這座城市被冠上「帶有死刑的迪士尼樂園」的諷刺稱號。　　前《金融時報》（Financial Times）駐星特派記者吉萬．瓦薩加爾（Jeevan Vasagar），以第一線的敏銳觀察與精湛筆觸 ...
