Overview'The Changing Geography of Africa' is intended for use in schools and colleges. A thematic approach has been adopted in which the various fields of economic activity that make up the continent's resources are examined, followed by a chapter dealing with the factors that lie behind the present crisis in Africa. The book reflects Africa as it is today, how it has developed, and how recent changes in other parts of the world have affected it. It contains a wealth of examples, statistics, maps, diagrams, and photos. This thoroughly updated Second Edition takes account of recent social, economic, and political changes.
