Best of Luck. I would also recommend you to learn from life of Imran Khan as a cricketer, philanthropist and now political leader. He said in his speeches time and again "Onchay Onchay Khwab dehko" "Kamyabi kay leay koi Shortcut nahe marna"

It's tremendous to know that (Hassan) you are reading books 📚 you are better than the majority of the population here in Pakistan 🇵🇰 who didn't have any connection with books. Continue with your struggle and read as much as you can no matter if you don't have degrees if you have a connection with books and movies you can learn a lot without any degrees. Dr. Sb channel is like a blessing of God for us. We have Hamid Mir and other journalists The majority of our public listens and likes them. But there is no comparison of Dr. Moeed with the rest of the famous journalists. If we compare Exposure wise Dr sb is outstanding among all others. The sad thing is, after the regime change operation the situation of Pakistan is the worst place for free thinkers and for elite and intellectual class. Our (illegitimate respectables) institutes blacked mailed tortured and murdered the public, journalists and political persons.

Yaa, it's time to have a proper English news network for the people of Pakistan. 2nd thing is our mainstream media channels are not producing true and quality content, we are not able to compare our content with global news channels so it's time to have a proper and reliable English news network. Where we can discuss our problems and free speech and the spirit of inquiry are appreciated there, where we discuss that, we are lumber ones from the bottom in the whole region and the worst situation of our education, health, agriculture, and science and technology, IT and telecom.

Animal Farm by George Orwell is another excellent read. Short and very relevant, anyone, anywhere can easily relate to it. Revolution is prone to betrayal. Although the main theme is communism around WW2, it's frightening to see how people in our part of the world find themselves in a similar situation.

Love from Canada! I (husband) have read 3 books from your list and it was ages ago when my interest was in that area. For the last 20 years, my interest has been in non-fiction adventure books and I find it difficult to return to my previous interest(s). So good to know a graduate of Columbia's SIPA. When I was doing my cross-functional individual major, I took courses at Columbia's Engineering, Business School, Graduate School of Architecture, Planning and Preservation, and explored the possibility of taking a course at SIPA (International Program Management) on the other side of Amsterdam Avenue. However, my program advisor advised against taking that particular course. Sorry, I went down the memory lane! Please continue doing the great job on GVS Channel.

Sir, Unequivocally, Henry Kissinger played unprecedented role in the rapprochement between the US and China in the president Nixon era and beyond. However, John Mearsheimer ( offensive realist and professor of political Science in the Chicago university) has disputed some of his liberal policy towards China in his book, "The Great Delusion- liberal hegemony vs international reality".

Thanks a lot Sir, you dugout our buried sense of book reading, it was our childhood romance when we're reading novels and fictions in classroom, and the thrill was when we kept the novel within a school book in font of our angry teachers.

I must admit that I am not into reading books but today you inspired me to read. I love the way you share your thoughts. Thank you so much.

[@HinaLateefShah]

“All happy families are alike; each unhappy family is unhappy in its own way.” One is hard put not to quote the most famous of the opening lines every time ‘Anna Karenina’ is mentioned. It is interesting to observe that you chose to relate this classic to that time of your life when perhaps the prevailing title would’ve been“ The One That Got Away”. Just a bit of gentle teasing from a regular viewer. :) I am pleased that the personal account has a happy ending of “ highly successful doctor in United States ” and not a tragic scene at railway tracks.

Dear Hina, thanks for your interesting comment! I suspect that she was very lucky that we did not get married! We were class fellows & thus age fellows! And I was a young confused medical graduate not knowing what to do with my life; my mother & Khala used to tell me that for good marriages men should be at least 10 years older than their wives; over years - through several experiences & reading - I have also learnt that women need emotionally stable men to bear their own energy and turbulence! So she was definitely lucky! We again met after a few years! And we still had that chemistry!

I recently read Overthrow by Stephen Kinzer and next on my list are Covert Regime Change (O'Rourke) and No exit from Pakistan (Markey). I used to think why a developing country like ours would be of any interest to the US, but these books have been a big eye opener to understand how critical our political situation is right now :/ Definitely going to order your first two suggestions. The only one I have read from your list is 1984 but that too from a perspective of being a classic. Sad to see how it is more relevant than ever to the situation in our own country.

Dr Sahab, I was inspired by you in General Mysharraf's era of governing Pakistan most admirably. I was quite disappointed by his Presidency though, where he got to compromise politically on so many issues. These compromises were not matched with his tall and brave personality neither his successful governing philosophy. Finally he paid the price and lost a quite winning battle against 60 years old corrupt, illiterate, dishonest and the most cruel Mafias of all kinds in this great country. I am saying it great because after all this injustice and corruption this country still exist on the world's map. I am following you for a few months and try to watch all your videos which are very intellectuals and based on in depth analysis and wisdom. You and Dr. Shahid Masood are different in the lot and quite an interesting that both of you have medicine as origin. By listening and watching both of you in particular along with a few other honest and brave generalists, and a few in our institutions, are still sincere with this country and they want to see Pakistan as a strong, respectful and a speedily rising developed nation in the world not only politically and economically but also morally having strong and real positive Islamic values in all walks of life. Please keep up your good work for the youth to drag and convert them into a wise, literate, positive, honest, hard working and a truthful society based on the principle rules of Islam which are Justice, Peace, Welfare and achieving excellence in education.

Thank you, Dr. Sahib. I somehow missed this wonderful vlog. I tend to get most of my books through the library but bought Dr. Henry Kessinger’s book from this list, and I absolutely loved it.

This is the tale of ten senators who, in the face of several obstacles and demands from their constituents, stayed steadfast in their commitment to serving the nation.

I Enjoyed the following books 1. Fall of the giants by Ken Follet. It's a historical fiction about world War 1. 2. Atomic Habits by James Clear. This book gives you tools how to cultivate good habits and get rid of bad habits. 3.Sapiens by Yuval Noah Harari. It's a brief history of human kind. 4. Steve Jobs by Walter Isaccson. Biography of Apple founder and CEO Steve Jobs 5. Rise and fall of third Reich by William Shirer. It's about Hitler and World War II 6 Lawrence in Arabia by Scott Anderson. This book actually is about a British spy Colonel T E Lawrence in WW II but gives a beautiful prospective of how Middle East was carved out by Britain and France after fall of Ottoman Empire .

Dr Moeed Pirzada-- Excellent. Best Monologue yet! “If there's a book that you want to read, but it hasn't been written yet, then you must write it.” ― Toni Morrison “... a mind needs books as a sword needs a whetstone, if it is to keep its edge.” George RR Martin! In fact barring the first two by Dr Henry Kissinger I've read the remaining six you have mentioned. Anne Karenina used to be the #3 best seller after the revealed ones --the Bible and the Koran. Now the title has dropped out from the first ten. JK Rowling is at #3 and JRR Tolkien at #4 Among st the Classics ; MM " GWTW" is at #9. Reading is a very useful exercise. Keeps one alert and in circulation. Winston Churchill the NL in English Literature and PM of GB, was a master of word play. For that is what keeps you riveted. Leo Tolstoy and Fydor Dostoevsky were skillful craftsmen. Do keep up the great work whatever the platform. GVS if you like!!

[@politicswithkashif8282]

Literally speaking naver ever meet person like you let it be on social media. The informative stuff that you share is really priceless. These books are really useful and kindly apprise us from such unprecedented information. I try to follow each thing that you portray. Independent thinking grows after watching you❤️

[@shujjahaider3946]

thank you so very much Moeed Sb its so nice of you to shortlist these important works.

[@sadiqulsiddiqui9344]

Dr. Sahab, This is actually a very exciting project with a lot of potential. You can go in so many directions with this, such as recommending a book, and asking readers to leave comments while you summarize/highlight your perspective in a bi-monthly format. So it can be like an online book club. However I would highly recommend refraining from using rhetoric like literate, learned, or illiterate in reference to anyone who has read, not. Just for the sake of "dil azari na ho". Once again, fantastic, and thank you!

[@danyalali2063]

Doc saab this is my first comment probably on any Vlog or youtube video because i am very inspired by this initiative of yours. Please keep up this much needed great work as i feel there is much need in our society to know about informational sources from an authentic person. JazakAllah doc sab, much love 💖
