    NATIONAL BESTSELLER 
     
     
    This New Edition of This Is What Inequality Looks Like by Teo You Yenn features a new Afterword by the author, and a Foreword by Kwok Kian Woon, Professor of Sociology at the Nanyang Technological University, Singapore. 
     
    What is poverty? What is inequality? How are they connected? How are they reproduced? How might they be overcome? Why should we try? 
     
    The way we frame our questions shapes the way we see solutions. This book does what appears to be a no-brainer task, but one that is missing and important: it asks readers to pose questions in different ways, to shift the vantage point from which they view ‘common sense,’ and in so doing, to see themselves as part of problems and potential solutions. This is a book about how seeing poverty entails confronting inequality. It is about how acknowledging poverty and inequality leads to uncomfortable revelations about our society and ourselves. And it is about how once we see, we cannot, must not, unsee.

    In the annals of modern history, few inventions have cast as long and dark a shadow as the atomic bomb. Its birth marked a seismic shift in human capability, wielding the power to obliterate entire cities and reshape geopolitical landscapes. Yet, from its inception, the atom's power has not merely been a matter of spectacle but of concealment. Beneath the publicized detonations and treaty negotiations lies a quieter, more insidious game—one where nations and non-state actors seek to hide their most devastating weapons in plain sight. 
    This hidden game began almost as soon as the atomic bomb was developed. During the Manhattan Project, secrecy was paramount, not just to protect scientific progress but to ensure strategic advantage. The veil of secrecy surrounding nuclear weapons set the stage for an enduring tradition of concealment. As the technology proliferated, so too did the techniques for hiding these weapons: underground silos, mobile launchers, and entire programs buried under bureaucratic misdirection. The Cold War, in particular, saw the emergence of elaborate strategies of obfuscation, where intelligence agencies and military powers engaged in a high-stakes game of hide-and-seek. 
    At the heart of this game lies a paradox. The destructive potential of nuclear weapons is unparalleled, yet their true power is magnified when shrouded in uncertainty. A hidden arsenal not only evades preemptive strikes but also exerts a psychological toll on adversaries, forcing them to account for every possibility. This uncertainty has become a tool of diplomacy, coercion, and deterrence, embedding itself deeply into the fabric of international relations.
