Written in 1979 by James Lee-Potter, The Z-Factor is a humorous and revealing memoir of the life and times of an English expatriate and his family, living and working on Zambia's Copperbelt between 1959 and 1978. Documenting the good times and the bad, these memoirs reveal the attitudes of the time and yet look to the future, anticipating the coming challenges confronting Africa in the 21st Century. James' memoirs are endearingly sympathetic to the plight of the Zambians who experienced at first hand the exploitative and extractive nature of development at the hands of white-controlled corporations. However, this work is primarily personal in nature and will be of interest to all those families, of many nationalities, who lived and worked together on the Copperbelt between 1950 and 1980, and to whom the refrain One Zambia, One Nation! will be so familiar.
