Breaking Sudan
After decades of civil war, the people of southern Sudan voted to secede from the north in an attempt to escape the seemingly endless violence. On declaring independence, South Sudan was one of the least developed places on earth, but with the ability to draw upon significant oil reserves worth $150 million a month, the foundation for a successful future was firmly in place. How, then, did the state of the new nation deteriorate even further, to the point that a new civil war broke out two years later? Today, with both Sudans still hostage to the aspirations of their military and political leaders, how can their people escape the violence that has dominated the two countries’ recent history? By giving voice to those who, after the break-up of Sudan, have had to find ways to live, trade and communicate with one another, Jok Madut Jok provides a moving insight into a crisis that has only rarely made it into our headlines. Breaking Sudan is a meticulous account, analyzing why violence became so deeply entrenched in Sudanese society and exploring what can be done to find peace in two countries ravaged by war.

Sudan
Sudan has been in the headlines for all the wrong reasons. After decades of civil war, rebel uprisings and power struggles, in 2011 it gave birth to the world’s newest country – South Sudan. But it’s not been an easy transition, and the secession that was meant to pave the path to peace, has plunged the region into further chaos. In this updated edition of his ground-breaking investigation, Jok Madut Jok delves deep into Sudan’s culture and history, isolating the factors that continue to cause its fractured national identity. With moving first-hand testimonies, Jok provides a decisive critique of a region in turmoil, and addresses what must be done to break the tragic cycle of racism, poverty and brutality that grips Sudan and South Sudan.
Sudan’s Wars and Peace Agreements
Originating from the 2008 27th annual conference of the Sudan Studies Association (SSA) of the same title, these essays document and analyze Sudan’s chronic history of conflict since independence in 1956 as well as its own and international efforts to bring an end to these conflicts. As the country moves toward what some see as the inevitable separation of South Sudan in 2011 honoring the principle of self-determination long fought for by southerners, the lessons of six decades of a history of war and peace agreements is both telling and compelling. This analysis is offered by the real experts on Sudan rather than the usual story offered by journalists and pundits. In addition to an Introd...

Genocide by Attrition
This volume documents the Sudanese government's campaign of genocidal attacks and forced starvation against the people of the Nuba Mountains in the late 1980s and early 1990s.

Coding Dimensions and the Power of Finite Element, Volume, and Difference Methods
Engineers, researchers, and students attempting to effectively utilize numerical methods to solve complex engineering problems in today's fast-paced technological world are increasingly struggling to keep up without the necessary tools. While theoretical knowledge is vital, it can feel disconnected from practical application, leaving many ill-equipped to tackle real-world challenges. Coding Dimensions and the Power of Finite Element, Volume, and Difference Methods offers a comprehensive understanding and hands-on experience with numerical methods, empowering you to push the boundaries of innovation. By providing practical examples of coding and real-world applications, you will be equipped with the skills to tackle dynamic systems, partial and ordinary differential equations, and other mathematical simulations confidently.
John Garang & the Vision of New Sudan
The objective of this new book is to tackle the crux of Dr. John Garang's vision of the new Sudan. Roba Gibia shows the power greed and inhumane behavior of the ruling elites in the central government are the causes to the marginalization, suffering, war, deaths and destruction of the majority of the Sudanese people. The author concludes that considering Dr. Garang's vision of new Sudan, however, is the best if not the only way to keep the country united and enable the diverse Sudanese people coexist peacefully as one nation.
