Overview

CROSS REF DEV STUDIES Both Africa and the Middle East have sought alternatives to Western models of development. The last twenty-five years have seen political independence for the states of Africa and increased economic dependence on external aid. The Middle East, resource rich and water poor, continues economically robust but politically unstable. In both regions, widespread poverty continues as does the involvement of the West.Clearly illustrated with basic maps of the countries discussed, The Changing Geography of Africa and the Middle East presents a systematic review of twenty-five years of development. The book will prove an invaluable guide to the physical, economic, social and political environments of contemporary Africa and the Middle East.

Reviews

`This excellent survey of geographical changes ... will appeal not only to the university student who needs expert guidance on the literature on the region, but also to the A-level teacher, brushing up his facts on areas he has not examined for a long time, and to the A-level student, raiding the text for case-study material.' - Geography
