Explores the history and practice of mathematics throughout sub-Saharan Africa, demonstrating that math was prominent in African life. Zaslavsky, who has written previously about math games from other cultures, shows how numbers and counting are important in tribal tradition, spiritual beliefs, trading practices, arts and crafts, architecture, and games. Her account was first published by Prindle, Weber, and Schmidt, Boston, in 1973, and again in 1990. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)

The Lake Chad region of Nigeria is an extreme environment: virtually treeless sand and a broiling clay plain in the fierce heat of the dry season, then much of it inundated and impassable in the wet season as whole areas turn into shallow lakes or marsh. Yet even this hostile landscape and climate have sustained human communities in continuous occupation for some three hundred years. Professor Connah traces the story of human adaptation to and exploitation of this unusual environment from prehistoric to modern times. He presents a natural history of Man in the region, based largely on archaeological data but drawing also on written evidence, ethnography and oral tradition to reconstruct human history and experience in this largely unknown area. This ecological approach therefore cuts across the conventional boundaries between academic disciplines and the book is intended for students of African history as well as of archaeology. It provides too the historical context in which modern development programmes for the region can be set and to some extent judged. The book is amply and well illustrated.

In keeping with the Africentric principle of Sankofa, this text looks to the past in order for contemporary African Americans to go forward. In this update of the 2005 edition, psychologists Belgrave and Allison (Virginia Commonwealth U.) add two new sections to each chapter: one discusses empirically-supported practices to address problems and improve outcomes for this population; the other offers critical analyses of topics covered. Chapters holistically address the definition, history, and contributions of African American psychology; methodological issues; and worldview, racism, educational, cognitive, social, developmental, spiritual, and vocational aspects of life.

Over the past ten years, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Burundi, Chad, Central African Republic, Congo Brazzaville and Rwanda all organized pluralist elections in a post conflict context, having experienced an armed conflict which either interrupted or prevented democratization processes. These polls were organized with the support of the international community, which viewed them as a crucial step in the peace-building process. The local media's role throughout has been to ensure that an electoral process is actually "free and fair" -- a role that becomes even more crucial in countries where the media have previously being perceived as warmongers or peace-builders in the conflicts. Giving a voice to African journalists and analyzing the work they have been publishing or broadcasting during these elections, African media specialist Marie-Soleil Frere explores if and how the local media fulfilled their duties. In doing so, the book reveals journalists' professionalism at a time when much is e
