Abstract of Review
Title:Ghana: Politics, Economics and Society by Donald I. Ray
Reviewer:Jeffrey Haynes
Location:Vol.14 No.39 (Summer 1987), pp122-126
 This volume, it is claimed, is the first 'comprehensive book on the politics, economics and society of the Marxist regime in Ghana' (p.v) which has been the cause of a 'great deal of mystery and confusion among analysts' (p.xi). Donald Ray attempts to lift the veil by explaining the coming to power of Flight-Lieutenant Jerry Rawlings and the Provisional National Defence Council (PNDC) and reviewing the regime's policies between 1981-86.
