The previous owner has certainly very much enjoyed reading this book more than once, therefore please be aware there will be some creasing on the spine or slight shelf wear. If it's been in their collection for some time, say years old or more, some pages might be discoloured and there may be other minor age blemishes, but that won't affect its readability.

Product Description

Review

"Hill's is a paradoxical book. He points out that Nigeria is a construct that has almost fallen apart several times since Lugard decreed its birth. He contends that its failure and continued unity are the result of three key mechanisms—federalism, oil and
the armed forces."
- The Round Table: The Commonwealth Journal of International Affairs
 
"Hill's book thoroughly showcases Nigeria's failure and continued unity as a product of complex and contradictory roles [...] His analysis significantly contributes to the ongoing debates over state failure and Nigeria's threatened existence as one of the largest democracies in Africa."
- CGIS-FMSO Blog

"The timing of the book could not have been better, in the wake of Boko Haram's assaults and atrocities perpetrated on innocent
bystanders in central and northern Nigeria. It is a must read for scholars and policy makers concerned with conflict and state failure in Nigeria."
- CHOICE

Book Description

The book provides a crucial insight into the state of modern Nigeria, focused on three of its most important mechanisms: federalism, oil and the armed forces
