’This volume brings together the region’s leading geographers who desegregate the stereotypes about the world's poorest region. Through authoritative and accessible chapters on the key regional economic sectors and individual country profiles, they enhance our underdeveloped understanding of the complex geography of wealth and poverty in Southern Africa. As a text for Regional Geography, African Studies, Political or Economic Geography this book provides a major contribution. Leading Southern African geographers provide clear and insightful chapters on sectoral and national dynamics that drive the rapidly shifting realities of a region whose vulnerability is of global concern.’ Assistant Professor Susan Parnell, Department of Environmental and Geographical Sciences, University of Cape Town, South Africa ’This is the first comprehensive thematic handling of South Africa's Economic Geography in a long time and will be widely used by geographers, economists, policy analysts and development practitioners. Drawing from the writing of all the leading practitioners in the field the volume also examines the dominant development themes in the neighbouring states and looks at South Africa in terms of regional and global integration. This will be a particularly valuable book for those educators involved in teaching either regional or systematic courses on Southern Africa.’ Professor Roddy Fox, Rhodes University, Grahamstown, South Africa
