This book, "A Dream for Peace," is an autobiographical memoir written by Dr. Ghoulem Berrah. This book talks about Dr. Ghoulem Berrah's accomplishments and all his experiences. As the author of the book, Dr. Ghoulem Berrah provides all the necessary details of his inspiring life stories, thereby making this book interesting.

The memoir starts with the birth history of Dr. Ghoulem Berrah, who was born in Ain Beida, a small town in northeastern Algeria. Dr. Ghoulem Berrah was from a polygamous family. He lost his father when he was little, which made Fodil his stepbrother to take care of them as the head of the family. Dr. Ghoulem Berrah talks about the bravery of her mother, Lalla Zebida, who rejected many men after she lost her husband to raise her children. The author also talks about his primary education down to the university level. The author was racially abused on several occasions during his primary education in his homeland. Dr. Ghoulem Berrah also talks about how he was able to go to medical school in France despite his stepbrother insisting he become a teacher. Dr. Ghoulem Berrah's days at the University were more political, as he was fighting or campaigning for peace and also putting an end to colonialism and racism. He joined and formed many student unions and organizations to achieve most of his goals. The author successfully overcame a lot of obstacles. All in all, Dr. Ghoulem Berrah was the first scientist to offer a hypothesis on what was later known as the "Reverse Transcriptase Enzyme". Grab a copy of this book to find out more about the life-inspiring story of Dr. Ghoulem Berrah.

The brave approach Dr. Ghoulem Berrah takes to promoting peace, abolishing colonialism, and combating racism is one aspect of this book that I enjoy. I also appreciate that the author included pictures in the book. I rate this book five out of five stars because it was very educational and informative. I found no errors after I finished reading this book.

What I don't like about this book is how lengthy it is, and apart from the bulkiness, the book was exceptionally well-edited and flawlessly written. This book will serve as an inspiration and motivator for so many people.

I recommend this book to people of all political stripes and to everyone who likes reading autobiographies. Also, I recommend this book to the good people of Algeria.
