Paperback. Condition: Very Good. This authoritative new series describes the history, landscape, culture, economy and people of this continent. This title is also packed full of fascinating facts, maps and statistics. A statistical compendium at the back provides a handy reference guide for key statistical data.

However, in stark contrast, the continent also has some of the world's poorest countries, where life for many is a daily struggle against disease and malnutrition.
