1. 1. Africa

   Altered States, Ordinary Miracles

   

   A lively, panoramic account that blends travel reportage, historical overview and political analysis to explain how colonial legacies, kleptocratic rule, civil wars and exploitative external interests have shaped contemporary Africa, while also celebrating the resilience, creativity and economic dynamism of its peoples; the author criticizes misguided aid and foreign policy, emphasizes African agency, and urges practical, locally grounded solutions rather than simplistic victim narratives.
