Theodore, a teacher, historian and novelist with twenty-one years' experience
as president of two leading private organizations, is now a Senior Fellow

University Press published his latest book, Indonesian Destinies.
For the educated lay reader, he tells the story of the Indonesian nation
state, from revolution against the Dutch through solving of the terrorist
bombing in Bali. In doing so, he conveys the anthropological and
religious
variety of Indonesia, and differences among its several layers of Islam.
