<P>Originally published in 1967, reissued now with a new introduction, <EM>Africa in Search of Democracy</EM> in the author¿s words was ¿a humble contribution to Africa¿s search for political wisdom whereby to avoid destruction¿. Written by the author during his time in voluntary exile, he was leader of the Parliamentary Opposition and of the United Party in Ghana which opposed the tyrannical rule of Nkrumah and his Convention People¿s Party. In this book he proposed to examine the problems facing contemporary Africa within the context of the search for democracy; that is, for the establishment of societies which provide the best possible conditions for individual as well as social development within the widest measure of democratic freedom. The burning questions of nation building, of modernization, of raising standards of living, of achieving African unity, or harmonizing race relations and world peace, are discussed in relation to the quest for democracy.</P>
