UgandaIn recent years Uganda has almost become a byword for political instability, economic mismanagement and poverty, and the complete breakdown of law and order. A country once described as 'the pearl of Africa' has certainly lost any claim to the status. The country is now in the process of making a slow effort towards recovery and a return to more normal conditions. This new and completely revised edition of Uganda presents over 700 annotated items, including books and scholarly articles. |
