while awake or even asleep; it can become an inspiration – and can take you to sublime
heights; in poetry, prose, art or science. It is creative way of handling thoughts in general,
especially the profound ones.
Professor Dr. (Brigadier) Munir A. Cheema is a prolific writer. His usage of English is
excellent and his way of writing and expressing himself superb. Being a senior army
officer, he has been trained to be highly disciplined, meticulous and keen observer. His
writings captivate the reader and the stories or anecdotes he has chosen to pen down are
revealing. As a matter of fact, while reading some of the anecdotes, I felt like I was reading
the “Bostan” and “Gulistan” of Shaikh Sa’di of Shiraz. These are expressed in the same
simple way but with far-reaching, useful moral outreach. He is very candid in his writings
and, just like Sa’di, advises that often silence is golden. He very candidly advises to keep
shut, if you are not sure what you are going to talk about. He does not hesitate to call a
spade, a spade and always takes the bull by the horns. For some people, writing can be
arduous, but it flows like a calm river from Dr. Cheema’s pen. I am sure that, whosoever
reads this book, will take away something from it and perhaps be a better human being.
Prof. Dr. Munir A. Cheema is a surgeon with empathy; a trait so far was taken for granted
in medical students. But it is so fast vanishing that now it has to be taught in medical
schools as a separate subject!показать меньше
