"Written by an international team of export Africanists, this book presents an authoritative survey of Africa's history and prospects in atlas form, enriched with colorful maps and photographs. Essential reading and reference for anyone concerned with or interested in African affairs."@en
"This book seeks to provide the essential facts about Africa's history and prospects, now revised to reflect the ever-changing nature of the continent. Any understanding of Africa must be based on an awareness of its geography. Completely new maps have been compiled throughout for this atlas. In clear and brilliant color they present, simply and memorably, the realities of Africa today. Part One sets the scene for the whole atlas in its survey, through maps and text, of the natural geographical phenomena of the continent. The contributors to Part Two show both the unity and the diversity of selected aspects of Africa: its ancient kingdoms and empires, its arts and architecture, the diaspora of its peoples, the urbanization of its countries. Part Three is a country-by-country survey of Africa's nation-states. A map of each individual country sets out the basic facts of its human and economic geography, while the text outlines the forces that have molded the modern state. A bibliography, gazetteer, and index have been added to aid the serious student and the traveler. This ambitious and informative book is essential reading for all those - both within and outside Africa - who want or need to be better informed about this amazing continent."@en
