'Price describes well the government's response to Soweto and the risings of the mid-1980s ... He is equally effective in outlining the rise of people's power ... Price is most successful in his examination of the internal scene, where he knits together economic, social and political forces.' James Barber, Times Higher Education SupplementMore details
