Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From one of Africa’s most influential and eloquent essayists, a posthumous collection that highlights his biting satire and subversive wisdom on topics from travel to cultural identity to sexuality “A fierce literary talent . . . [Wainaina] shines a light on his continent without cliché.”—The Guardian “Africa is the only continent you can love—take advantage of this. . . . Africa is to be pitied, worshipped, or dominated. Whichever angle you take, be sure to leave the strong impression that without your intervention and your important book, Africa is doomed.” Binyavanga Wainaina was a pioneering voice in African literature, an award-winning memoirist and essayist remembered as one of the greatest chroniclers of contemporary African life. This groundbreaking collection brings together, for the first time, Wainaina’s pioneering writing on the African continent, including many of his most critically acclaimed pieces, such as the viral satirical sensation “How to Write About Africa.” Working fearlessly across a range of topics—from politics to international aid, cultural heritage, and redefined sexuality—he describes the modern world with sensual, emotional, and psychological detail, giving us a full-color view of his home country and continent. These works present the portrait of a giant in African literature who left a tremendous legacy.

Whatever the case, no-one remains dispassionate about him – he is surely the man who has created more millionaires than anyone or any institution before him.

Thousands of people stream to his Wealth Mastery seminars, where they learn how to invest in property without any cash. His methods are the only hope for millions of people in South Africa left in the lurch by the traditional retirement products sold to them by the giant life insurance companies. In this book you will become acquainted with some of Coert’s students, his methods and his philosophies. Any person who says they are serious about wealth creation or providing for their retirement, but does not know Coert’s methods, cannot truly be serious. Coert’s method is known as the Wealth Mastery System. the Wealth Mastery System has changed the face of property in South Africa. You can read more on www.WealthMastersClub.com.

This book was released on 2004 with total page 508 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is Ali Mazrui a visonary or a "vacuous" intellectual? Is he recationary, revolutionary or essentially a radical pragmatist? These questions were the focus of a special plenary session of the Conference of the African Assocation of Political Science that took place in Harrare, Zimbabwe, in June 2003. The forum was intended to interrogate Ali Mazrui's contributions in the last forty years or so of his career as an academic. The question themselves capture the magnitude of polarization among different sections of Mazrui's audiences generated by his often provocative propositions amd prescriptions on a wide range of issues---from the role of intellectuals in Africa's transformation to the imperative of pax-Africana, from Tanza-philia to Islamophobia, from the condition of the Black woman to the destiny of the Black race. It is some the exchanges, sometimes intense and even acrimonious, arising from Mazrui's ideas on continetal and global African affairs, from the 1960s ti the present, that constitute the subject matter. Together, they are not only a celebration of Ail Mazrui's own intellectual life as one long debate, but also an intellectual mirror of the conours of some of the hotly contested terrains in Africa's quest for self-realization.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since its construction in the early 1960s, the hydroelectric Akosombo Dam across the Volta River has exemplified the possibilities and challenges of development in Ghana. Drawing upon a wealth of sources, A Dam for Africa investigates contrasting stories about how this dam has transformed a West African nation, while providing a model for other African countries. The massive Akosombo Dam is the keystone of the Volta River Project that includes a large manmade lake 250 miles long, the VALCO aluminum smelter, new cities and towns, a deep-sea harbor, and an electrical grid. On the local level, Akosombo has meant access to electricity for people in urban and industrial areas across southern Ghana. For others, Akosombo inflicted tremendous social and environmental costs. The dam altered the ecology of the Lower Volta, displaced 80,000 people in the Volta Basin, and affected the livelihoods of hundreds of thousands of Ghanaians. In A Dam for Africa, Stephan Miescher explores four intersecting narratives: Ghanaian debates and aspirations about modernization in the context of decolonization and Cold War; international efforts of the US aluminum industry to benefit from Akosombo through cheap electricity for their VALCO smelter; local stories of upheaval and devastation in resettlement towns; and a nation-wide quest toward electrification and energy justice during times of economic crises, droughts, and climate change.

Download or read book True Beginnings written by Dianne R. Harper and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2011-04-28 with total page 53 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: According to many theories, the origins of man appear to have begun in the Africa/Asia region. The Bible, which is the oldest historical book of mankind, presents the creation of mankind (Genesis) in a setting (Garden of Eden) theorized to be in Africa. This book will illustrate the Biblical book of Genesis, focusing on the following concepts: making of the world, making of the African Man, the Garden of Eden, the African Edenites, the African Khoisan people, the Biblical Flood, the migration of the African race up and out of Africa, the Trans-Atlantic Slave era, African Americans in the America, and Full Circle-Barack Obama. This book gives an analysis of each of the concepts, based on biblical scripture, historical, archaelogical facts, and this authors theories, all from an African perspective. It has been a lifelong belief of this author, that Africa is the cradle of civilization, and the creation of people that the Bible speaks of, is the original race of people, the African race.
