This is the first paperback edition of Cordell and Gregory's classic collection of case studies on African historical demography. The contributors cover twenty African societies representing all the major regions of sub-Saharan Africa, examining not only the effects of slavery, colonialism, and capitalism on each, but also the resistance and resilience of indigenous African institutions and individuals.
