Dr. Ghoulem Berrah was an exceptional individual who dedicated his life to making the world a better place. His memoir, A Dream For Peace, is a captivating read that details his personal and political journey as a mentor and human rights activist. As someone who lived a purposeful life, Dr. Ghoulem Berrah serves as an inspiration to all those who seek to make a positive impact on society.

The memoir provides a richly detailed account of Dr. Ghoulem Berrah's life, from his birth on May 29, 1938, in Aïn Beïda, Algeria to his roles as a physician, microbiologist, activist, and advisor to President Houphouët-Boigny. His journey began with his involvement in the decolonization of Algeria from French rule and his early activism against racism while still in high school. Dr. Ghoulem Berrah's commitment to learning and growing never wavered, as evidenced by his willingness to expand his medical expertise to include veterinary services. Read more about him in the book.

What is truly remarkable in the book about Dr. Ghoulem Berrah is his ability to impact people from all walks of life. As a Muslim religious man, he had a deep respect for other faiths, which led him and his dear friend, Essy Amara, to build both a mosque and a church to honor both religions. Dr. Ghoulem Berrah's transparency and honesty were also qualities that endeared him to many. I liked that about him.

Reading A Dream For Peace was a thoroughly enjoyable experience for me. Dr. Ghoulem Berrah's life was so multifaceted and his impact on society so vast that I found myself wishing I had known him personally. The book is expertly written and edited, with no grammatical errors or inconsistencies. The author has done an outstanding job of compiling the life story of a truly remarkable man.

Dr. Ghoulem Berrah's legacy is that of an iconic figure who embodied the true spirit of human kindness and compassion. His commitment to making a positive difference in the world serves as a shining example for all of us. For these reasons, I rate the book a perfect 5 out of 5 stars, and I find no negative aspects to warrant a lower score.

I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in reading about the life of Dr. Ghoulem Berrah or those who love historical memoirs. The book offers a unique perspective on the life of an exceptional individual whose contributions to society were immeasurable. It is a must-read for anyone seeking inspiration and motivation to make a difference in the world.

I am not really a fan of memoirs. On the other hand, Dr. Berrah seems like a very interesting man. His political activism and his tolerance speak very well for him and he is an inspiration to those who come after him.
