Review of A Dream For Peace
Dr. Ghoulem Berrah, a diplomat originally from Algeria, has made remarkable contributions in the fields of academics, politics, medicine, and research. His groundbreaking research includes a hypothesis on the now-identified Reverse Transcriptase Enzyme. Within academia, he serves as a biology professor and medical scientist. In the realm of politics, he holds the position of Special Advisor to President Houphouët-Boigny, utilizing his political influence to establish peace in situations of political discord. For instance, he successfully averted potential trouble by preemptively advising and muting Fidel Castro's microphone during a speech. Additionally, he played a key role in fostering peace between Palestine and Israel through effective dialogue. Dr. Berrah's inspiring life journey can be explored further in the book A Dream for Peace: A Memoir.
A Dream for Peace is a memoir by Dr. Ghoulem Berrah that intricately depicts Dr. Ghoulem Berrah's life, shedding light on his impactful contributions to academic pursuits, politics, religion, and marriage.
There is nothing I dislike in this book. One aspect I truly appreciate about this book is its genuine content, evident from the inclusion of testimonies from Ghoulem's friends and those who have benefited from his benevolence. These commendations serve as third-party affirmations of his extraordinary accomplishments that might otherwise seem too remarkable to be true. The author provides an honest account of both Ghoulem's strengths and weaknesses, recounting instances where his limited English proficiency hindered his comprehension of speeches during conferences before he emerged as a scientist.
Furthermore, the book captivates readers with the inclusion of photographs featuring the author and significant individuals who played important roles in Ghoulem's life, such as his spouses, professional mentors, and referenced colleagues.
The book also conveys valuable lessons. Among the various moral teachings, what struck me the most was the significance of embracing religious tolerance. Ghoulem's broad-mindedness and regard for different faiths empowered him to overcome limitations and obstacles, allowing him to select a life partner who would bring him lasting joy.
From a literary perspective, the book is flawlessly edited, devoid of any grammatical errors. Therefore, I wholeheartedly give it a rating of 5 out of 5 stars. I highly recommend A Dream for Peace to all memoir enthusiasts and individuals interested in learning about the lives of historical heroes, icons, and influencers who have left a significant impact on the world.
