Too Hot to Talk to a Peanut - A Collection of Articles is, as the name suggests, a series of short observations on society shaped by the experience, and in part by the philosophy, of an ex-pat mother living in Saudi Arabia and Cyprus.
As we move further into the 21st Century perhaps this is the right time to pause and take stock before we make irreversible mistakes. Should we take more steps to curb global population growth, to protect the environment, to better educate? Today's children are tomorrow's decision-makers, are they up to the job with current educational standards tied in with a shallow media-driven me-culture?
From cold weather to queuing Barbara Steel Knowles voices qualified opinion before finally focusing the lens on herself: A once driven professional woman now reflects and decides that multi-tasking is mainly a preoccupation for careerists and that perhaps there is, or should be, a time to dream and reflect ... and write.

As a pluralistic nation, Malaysia consists of diverse ethnic groups of people with various cultures that integrate harmonious and peaceful living in a politically stable and wonderfully rich environmental setting. Due to such unique features, people from abroad become largely attracted to this land and thus frequently arrive here as visitors and tourists. There are tremendous amounts of attractions for the visitors and tourists, and people from various backgrounds arrive to stay here temporarily, generating around RM65 billion in foreign earnings, adding to its national coffer every year. Nevertheless, tourism also causes a major negative effect in which the local culture may be assimilated into the alien norms and behaviors through the continuous process of acculturation. Due to day-to-day interactions with the tourists and visitors, many sociocultural impacts have affected local values, which contextually require to be redefined. This book analyzes critically the sociocultural and environmental impacts of tourism in Malaysia, having collected both qualitative and quantitative data at the empirical level of investigation.
