This reference work provides authoritative biographies of over 450 politicians who have shaped the development of Africa in the period since independence. It offers a comprehensive coverage of all states south of the Sahara including Namibia and South Africa. Drawing on 20 years experience as a teacher and researcher in African affairs, John Wiseman presents short biographical essays which give not only the facts but also an assessment of the importance of the individual concerned. He covers the life and work of politicians representing diverse currents of thought and different political traditions. Many of the entries provide information available in English for the first time. This book should prove an essential reference work for a wide range of readers - academic specialists, students, politicians, journalists and business organizations with connections in Africa.
