This two-volume set reflects on the past, present, and future of Singapore's politics, economy, and society through selected works by leading government figures, academics, and practitioners. It explores key drivers of Singapore's success — from good governance and diplomatic relations to economic transformation and social progress.

The first volume examines political leadership, values, and governance, as well as Singapore's evolving social compact and foreign policy. The second volume focuses on the nation's development into an inclusive, tech-savvy, ageing, sustainable, and globalised society — covering themes like social mobility, digitalisation, ageing, sustainability, and global positioning.

Together, these volumes commemorate 60 years of nation-building while offering insights into Singapore's future pathways.

With contributions from Chan Heng Chee, Euston Quah, George Yeo, Goh Chok Tong, Ho Kwon Ping, Lim Siong Guan, Mohamad Maliki Bin Osman, Peter Ho, Ravi Menon, Tommy Koh, Vivian Balakrishnan, Yaacob Ibrahim.
