ISBN10: 1586487531, ISBN13: 9781586487539, [publisher: Public Affairs Press, NY] Hardcover First Edition (USA) 1st printing. INSCRIBED BY AUTHOR to the half-title: "To P---/ with best wishes for your help in the field/ Richard Dowden, March 2009", no other markings, Fine in Fine dust jacket. Hardcover, 576pp, index, no illus. The author is dorector of the Royal African Society. From the jacket: After a lifetime's close observation of the continent, one of the world's finest Africa correspondents has penned a landmark book on life and death in modern Africa. In captivating prose, Dowden spins tales of cults and commerce in Senegal and traditional spirituality in Sierra Leone; analyzes the impact of oil and the internet on Nigeria and aid on Sudan; and examines what has gone so badly wrong in Zimbabwe, Rwanda, Burundi, and the Congo. From the individual stories of failure and success comes a surprising portrait of a new Africa emerging?an Africa that, Dowden argues, can only be developed by its own people. Dowden's master work is an attempt to explain why Africa is the way it is and calls for a re-examination of the perception of Africa as ?the dark continent. He reveals it as a place of inspiration and tremendous humanity. (2.5 JM 0415 Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾"

'[The author] is perhaps one of the world's leading journalists of African affairs. Since first arriving in Idi Amin's Uganda in 1971, he has never stopped learning about and reporting on real Africans and the realities of life in Africa's many and varied lands. For Africa is a continent, a continent of peoples. The West so often treats Africa as if it were merely one country, and its interventions therefore often misfire. Africa is complex.' 576 pages.
