This authoritative, comprehensive reference work covers South Africa's history, government and politics, law, society and culture, economy and infrastructure, demography, environment, and more, from the era of human origins to the present. Nearly 300 alphabetically arranged entries provide information in a concise yet thorough way. In addition, a series of appendixes present a wealth of data, including: a chronology of key events, major racial and apartheid legislation since 1856, heads of state (with party affiliation) since 1910, provinces and major cities, government structures, and current political parties and representation in parliament. Photographs enhance the text. What makes this a different and accessible resource is that its entries cover history, political history, as well as entries about more recently known people such as Johnny Clegg, Dennis Brutus, Helen Suzman and places like Stellenbosch. From democratic politics to social movements, from music to the Hottentots - it is a well of information.
