Comprehensive environmental profiles of Angola, Botswana, Lesotho, Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia, Swaziland, Tanzania, Zambia and Zimbabwe. Each profil gives full information on the human and physical geography, ecology, agriculture, economy, history, population and political structure of the country, looking in detail at its resources and environmental conditions, analysing the environmental problems it faces and the institutional context for resolving them. Based on extensive fieldwork and research originally commissioned by the Dutch government, it provides a valuable study of this richly endowed region.
