Malaysiakini: Dr Chandra Muzaffar considered your The Malaysian Eclipse book somewhat 'eclipsed' by the Nobel Laureate Joseph Stiglitz's Globalisation and its Discontents .

Jomo:

I take it as a compliment of sorts to have my work compared to Stiglitz's and to be eclipsed by someone of Stiglitz's stature. But I have to add that the two books are not comparable: Stiglitz's book has some three pages on Malaysia.

Eclipse

was a book devoted to understanding the dynamics of the economic crisis and its recovery in Malaysia.
