First published in 1997, this volume examines the urban
environments of Accra (Ghana), Harare (Zimbabwe) and Gaborone
(Botswana). Each was effectively the capital city of a former
British colony, and hence inherited a concern for public health.
Each has made a serious and largely successful effort to provide
the public goods necessary for the well-being of their urban
population. Each is well above the average for all of Sub-Saharan
Africa (SSA) in these respects. However, the GDP per capita varies
significantly between these three countries. Differences in
standard of living are similarly evident. The authors focus
intensively on public policies that determine who gets what, how
they get it, and what price they pay.
