Summary: This third edition of Anthony Butler’s biography of Cyril Ramaphosa was published after Ramaphosa became president of South Africa in February 2018. Subsequently, in the National Elections of May 2019, he received a popular mandate in support of his efforts to return South Africa to economic stability and growth following the erratic and kleptocratic years of Jacob Zuma, and he remains the most popular and trusted politician in South Africa today. Even before his ascent to the presidency, Ramaphosa was a fascinating subject for a biography; his latest incarnation as president gives this well-researched and highly readable biography added relevance.
