War and Peace in Sudan - A Tale of Two Countries

First Published in 2003. Nearly half a century ago the first flares of Sudan's civil war were enkindled. Today, as the world enters a new century and a new millennium, Sudan's civil war has degenerated into an inferno of carnage and destruction. Sudan's war, however, is no different from wars elsewhere; it is an entangled political, cultural and social weave with equally intricate international ramifications. This volume charts Sudanese's history of conflict.
