An excellent source on the workings of (some) governments in Africa is in
"Tropical Gangsters" by Robert E. Klitgaard.
The author is an economist with first-hand experience about Equatorial
Guinea.  He covers his dealings with the government as well as with other
consultants.  His inside views of international organizations and how they
allocate their funds (and the results achieved) on the field are quite
interesting.
