Yousafzai isn't just a Pakistani diplomat, educator, educational activist, and human rights campaigner; he's also the father of Nobel laureate Malala Yousafzai. Here he explains what he has learned from his daughter, even as he clarifies his own beliefs: "I come from a family in which my gender made me special. But I did not want to be special for this reason."

Taking credit for little beyond never "cutting her wings," Yousafzai--father of Malala Yousafzai, the young Pakistani girl who was attacked by the Taliban in 2012 and later went on to receive the Nobel Prize--provides a time line of the events leading to the place Malala now occupies in world history. Long an advocate of fairer treatment of girls and women despite the patriarchal culture of his homeland, teacher Yousafzai encouraged Malala in her own educational and political aspirations. Here, with writer Carpenter, he provides a frank account of the toll this activism took on Malala and the family, particularly after the attack forced their relocation to the UK. Yousafzai reinforces his beliefs that change begins from within and may need to be incremental in nature but credits Malala herself for the extraordinary drive she exhibited even from an early age. Readers seeking further insight into what motivates Malala will find answers in this humble account. VERDICT Yousafzai's gracious acknowledgement of the role of others in helping his daughter launch her astonishing campaign to secure rights for women and girls in Pakistan is both refreshing and inspirational.--Th�r�se Purcell Nielsen, Huntington P.L., NY
