Designed to enhance readers' comprehension and appreciation of the traditions, influences, and common themes underlying the many differences within this complex region, this volume ranges in coverage from history to economics and politics, from the environment to ethnicity, from religion to the Caribbean diaspora. The authors' thorough yet accessible analyses should serve well as a core text for Introduction to the Caribbean and Caribbean Politics courses and as valuable background reading for visitors.
