Beginning Postcolonialism - By: Ms. R. A. Phizackerley, 06 Jan 2008 
Essential reading for any course on postcolonial studies. Writtenin a style that makes a complex subject accessible to all levels of reading. Helpful references to further study. Also a book which can be read by non-students who are interestedin this subject.
Good introduction - By: , 23 Apr 2004 
A good introduction to postcolonialism, though perhaps more for basiclevel students. I found it useful as a handbook to teach highschool levelstudents. I particularly liked the use of literary texts to illustratepostcolonial perceptions. I don't think there is a better book for thatlevel of introduction, but if you want more in-depth details & debates,you need to go to other books. This is not a drawback though, for thisbook claims to be nothing but a basic introduction.
