A History of Modern Africa recounts the full breadth of historical events that have shaped the last two centuries of the African continent. * Stresses the diversity of Africa's rich variety of people, societies, cultures and religious beliefs * Provides a thought-provoking and illuminating journey through the slave trade and colonization to the rise of Islam, struggles for independence, and beyond * Puts the colonial era into proper perspective in relation to events that occurred before it and since * Wide-ranging in scope, it provides a framework for understanding such events as the genocidal horrors of Rwanda and the recent troubles in Zimbabwe and Kenya
