Continental shift : a journey into Africa's changing fortunes
Bloom, Kevin2016
Books
Africa is failing. Africa is rising. Africa is betraying its citizens. Africa is a place of starvation, corruption, stupidity. African economies are soaring faster than any other on Earth. Africa is squandering its bountiful resources. Africa is a roadmap for global development. Africa is turbulent. Africa is stabilising. Africa is ddomed. Africa is the future. On the ground, all of these pronouncements prove equally true and false, as South African journalists Richard Poplak and Kevin Bloom discover on their 9-year-roadtrip through the paradoxical continent they call home.
