Africa: The People and Politics of an Emerging Continent

Purchased in the late mid-80's in my search for info on the "coloreds of South Africa",Sanford J Ungar's book has given me much more than that small section(it's a book I've opened often enough for the sake of reference or to jot a note in its pages' borders, to remember the author's name ("Sanford") regarding its other peoples living there or natives from there living as 'Ambassadors' or 'Ex-Patriats' around the globe;via its Index (which list the politicians from many countries and also the many celebrities from various countries who've entertained there, ) and via its demography section which list which country originally colonized these places (Portugal to France) and where these more than 50 countries fit in regarding diets(some were sustaining themselves on less than 70 % of average needed food intake),when they gained their Independence and what were the predominant relgions.
