註釋John M Mwanakatwe is well known and highly regarded in Zambia, and Zambian Studies. He was the first African to gain a university degree from the then University of Northern Rhodesia, and he went on to serve in the first independence government of Kenneth Kaunda, with portfolios including education, mines and finance. He has variously served as chairman of the Constitutional Review Commission, and as Chancellor of the University of Zambia. He is author of two previous landmark publications in Zambia: The Growth of Education in Zambia since Independence (OUP, 1968) and End of Kaunda Era (Multimedia, 1994). This biography chronicles his personal experience of politics, development, and the role of legal practitioners in providing effective safeguards for civil liberties in Zambia. It is characterised by his belief in hard work, engagement in public life, and affirmation in human endeavour, which he considers essential for both personal and national development.
