Changing Geography of Africa

Adopting a thematic rather than a regional approach to the subject, A.J. Grove has brought thoroughly up to date the physical and historical chapters from his previous book Africa and added five chapters of completely new systematic material, taking account of recent changes and developments in Africa. The book is especially broad in scope, with a focus on topics such as population patterns and urbanization, development of natural resources, attempts at industrialization and agricultural modernization, and the critical nature of most African economies today. Each chapter is supported by a wealth of up-to-date examples, current statistics, and recent photographs, making The Changing Geography of Africa an ideal source for students of the geography, development trends, and economic landscape of contemporary Africa.Grove, A. T. is the author of 'Changing Geography of Africa' with ISBN 9780199133192 and ISBN 0199133190.
