About this title

Synopsis

The Sudan Handbook—covering Sudan, South Sudan and the North-South borderlands—has developed out of the Rift Valley Institute’s successful annual Sudan Field Course, held in Rumbek, South Sudan since 2005. The Handbook is an authoritative and accessible introduction to all aspects of the two countries, rooted in a broad historical account of the development of the state and vividly written by leading Sudanese, South Sudanese and international specialists. The book includes numerous purpose-drawn maps, a glossary of key terms, capsule biographies of key figures, a chronology and a bibliography.
