Bill Bryson goes to Kenya at the invitation of CARE International, the charity dedicated to working with local communities to eradicate poverty around the world. Kenya, generally regarded as the cradle of humankind, is a land of stunning landscapes, famous game reserves, and a vibrant culture, but it also has many serious problems, including refugees, AIDS, drought and grinding poverty. It also provides plenty to worry a nervous traveller like Bill Bryson: hair-raising rides in light aircraft, tropical diseases, snakes, insects and large predators. Bryson casts his inimitable eye on a continent new to him, and the resultant diary, though short in length, contains all his trademark laugh-out-loud wit, wry observation and curious insight. All the author’s royalties from this book, as well as all profits, will go to CARE International.

Always interested in Africa, humankind's original home? You will want to look at my book, "The Africa Diaries: A Love Affair," a collection of 30 different stories gleaned from records kept at my post in Botswana from 1982 to 1984, during the length of my contract. The tales are largely about my work as a CUSO (the former Canadian University Service Overseas) International volunteer District Officer (Lands) for Chobe District, in Botswana's far north. Here, planning for agriculture to feed the country was my primary responsibility, to counter the domination of the immense Kalahari Desert. My employment also entailed, among other things, the development of plans for the scenic villages of Kasane (where I was based) and Kazungula, both fronting on the Caprivi Strip of Namibia. All was not work, however, and wanderlust brought me to other parts of southern Africa, such as spectacular Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe, and Lusaka, Zambia. Canoeing was a welcome diversion on the Chobe River, and in the vast Okavango Delta, one of the 7 natural wonders of Africa. Hitchhiking was often needed for both work and pleasure, and I often enjoyed the company of fellow travellers partaking of adventure, too. Nearby Chobe National Park is known for its plentiful wildlife, and I had my fill of dangers. Lions were heard, seen, and smelled (!), right in Kasane. Snakes abounded, two poisonous ones in my beautiful home. Hippos and crocodiles ruled the Chobe and Zambezi Rivers. Great herds of elephant ruled the Park, so many that culling was talked about. Too, I became involved with, and was to marry, a gorgeous, intelligent Kalanga woman who brought me back to my old self, temporarily, after a serious depression. But I had to return to Canada, the land of my birth, empty-handed, after a life-threatening psychotic episode that had roots in my childhood. In short, I discovered more about myself than anything else, not my exacting work nor respite from it. At some future date, I hope to return to northern Botswana, to what I came to call the ancient Garden of Eden.

What do we know about economic development in Africa? The answer is that we know much less than we would like to think. This collection assesses the knowledge problem present in statistics on poverty, agriculture, labour, education, health, and economic growth. While diverse in origin, the contributors to this book are unified in two conclusions: the quality and quantity of data needs to be improved; and this is a concern not just for statisticians. Weaknesses in statistical methodology and practice can misinform policy makers, international agencies, donors, the private sector, and the citizens of African countries themselves. This is also a problem for academics from various disciplines, from history and economics to social epidemiology and education policy. Not only does academic work on Africa regularly use flawed data, but many problems encountered in surveys challenge common academic abstractions. By exploring these flaws, this book will provide a guide for scholars, policy makers, and all those using and commissioning surveys in Africa. This book was originally published as a special issue of The Journal of Development Studies.

"Black," "African," "African descendant" and "of African heritage," are just some of the ways Africans and Africans in the diaspora (both old and new) describe themselves. This volume examines concepts of race, ethnicity, and identity as they are ascribed to people of colour around the world, examining different case studies of how the process of identity formation occurred and is changing. Contributors to this volume, selected from a wide range of academic and cultural backgrounds, explore issues that encourage a deeper understanding of race, ethnicity and identity. As our notions about what it means to be black or of African heritage change as a result of globalization, it is important to reassess how these issues are currently developing, and the origins from which these issues developed. Global Africans is an important and insightful book, useful to a wide range of students and scholars, particularly of African studies, sociology, diaspora studies, and race and ethnic studies.
