Africa Confidential: Who's Who of Southern Africa

Using its formidable network of correspondents and contacts, Africa Confidential has produced 400 incisive biographies and commentaries on the people who are shaping Southern Africa. They range from politicians, business people, and the military to writers and religious leaders - indeed, anyone who has or is likely to have significant influence on the developing political scene.

Each entry contains essential biographical information and an informed analysis of the past, present, and likely future role of each figure. The entries are organized in five sections for each of the countries covered - South Africa, Angola, Mozambique, Zambia, and Zimbabwe - and each section is accompanied by an authoritative overview of the current political and economic climate, maps, economic data and other essential information.

Written in the distinctive voice of Africa Confidential, this Who's Who offers a unique insight into political and economic change in Southern Africa. Fully cross-referenced and indexed, it will be an invaluable reference work for academics, business people and those in government working in or on the region.
