  • Malaysian Maverick: Mahathir Mohamad in Turbulent Times is a biography of Mahathir Mohamad written by the Australian journalist Barry Wain (1944–2013) and published in 2009. The book tells Mahathir's story from ground level, through the significant events of his life, following him from birth in 1925 to his practice as a provincial doctor, to become an outcast first-term parliamentarian to Malaysia's longest-serving prime minister, based on extensive interviews and wide-ranging research on the many facets of Malaysia's political and economic development conducted by the author. The book eschews any pretensions of being a scholarly study of Mahathir's political ideology and does not try to trace Mahathir's ideas on nationalism, capitalism, Islam, populism, and authoritarianism, described by some scholars as "Mahathirism", to the cultural, social and intellectual currents of his time. Due to the demise of the author in 2013, this book may have missed the latest and most significant twist in the Mahathir Mohammad's life, when he came out of his 15-year retirement to lead the opposition alliance in the 14th General Elections held in Malaysia on May 9, 2018, to a resounding victory over the ruling government which has held federal power for 60 years.
