About the book
Since 1995, 17 African countries have defied expectations and have launched a remarkable, if little-noticed, turnaround, Emerging Africa describes this revitalization and why it is likely to continue. "Steve tosses out the stereotypes and unearths reality ... A meticulous and fascinating account of sub-Saharan Africa's most successful economies."--Bono, lead singer of U2 and co-founder of ONE and (RED). "Steve Radelet's comprehensive analysis provides further grounds for optimism that improved macroeconomic management in a significant number of countries is producing tangible results, including resilience to recent shocks. It makes an important contribution to mounting evidence of sustainable economic improvements across the continent, while being realistic about the effort needed to tackle remaining challenges."--Antoinette Monsio Sayeh, former Minister of Finance of Liberia and Director, African Department, International Monetary Fund. "Africa is in flux. Many countries have learned from past mistakes and now face huge new opportunities. Yet much of this has gone unnoticed. Radelet's important book will open your eyes to the new realities."--Paul Collier, Oxford University, author of The Bottom Billion --Book Jacket.
