| Editorial Review | Praise for 4th Edition: , "Superb work of historiographic synthesis ...

"Cape Times", , , Of the second edition: , , , "A masterly summary of the major themes which have gone into the making of modern South Africa and of the debates which historians have had about them. It is clear and succinct; marvellously well-researched; absolutely up-to-date; and easily accessible to the general reader. It is at once the best book of its kind available." , "Journal of Imperial and Commonwealth History" , , , "Nigel Worden's book has a good chronology, excellent bibliography and it certainly enriches the literature on South Africa." , "Africa World Review" , , , "Good, scholarly one-volume overviews of South African history are not plentiful.

He is to be congratulated in providing a masterly history of modern South Africa which should have a wide audience" , "The Australian Association for Maritime History" , , , "It is well written and balanced in its presentation of the South African history, such as the inclusion of the importance of gender and environmental history." , "West Africa", , , Of the third edition: , , , "That Worden explains the major themes in South African history in such a thin volume while remaining concise, readable and balanced, isquite an achievement for a book that can serve as an excellent introductory text for history and political courses on modern South Africa.", "Journal of Modern African Studies" Of the second edition: , "A masterly summary of the major themes which have gone into the making of modern South Africa and of the debates which historians have had about them.
