Book Description
This book, originally published in 1983, demonstrates the importance of seaports in the growth of less-developed countries. The author focuses on the character of port activity within the context of transport systems and regional economic planning. General principles of port development are illustrated by detailed reference to one Third World port group, that of the Indian Ocean coasts of Kenya and Tanzania. The objective is not merely to illustrate the character of one specific group of ports, but to demonstrate methods of analysis and to underline the crucial role of ports in the development process.

Book Description
"From its modest beginnings in the 1860s, Dar es Salaam has grown to become one of Africa's most important urban centres. A major political, economic and cultural hub, the city has also acted as a crucible of local social and cultural innovation, exerting a powerful influence on wider Tanzanian society. Reflecting important contemporary socio-economic trends of urban Africa, it has recently attracted the attention of a diverse range of scholars from several disciplines. This collection draws on the best of this scholarship." --Book Jacket.

Book Description
Originally published in 1987, this book traces the broad outlines of urban food policy, drawing attention to the limited knowledge of regional social history. Urban food supply systems in Africa have developed very fast, in the midst of societies in which food production was not in general oriented to feeding distant populations of 'specialist consumers'. Institutional and political links had to be forged between town and country if food supply was to be cheap and predictable. This volume explores the political and material dynamics of urban food supply through 4 case studies: Kano, Yaoundé, Dar es Salaam and Harare.
