The overall impression is that Ngugi has retained the substance and thrust of the earlier text, strengthened the focus and structure of his arguments and made some attempt to recast the polemical bluntness of the first edition. Although, of course, both editions are valuable as explicit markers in the process of Ngugi's developing reformist views, the revised edition, extending and reflecting on its prototype, is unequivocally the better book.-
