Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mammals of Africa (MoA) is a series of six volumes which describes, in detail, every currently recognized species of African land mammal. This is the first time that such extensive coverage has ever been attempted, and the volumes incorporate the very latest information and detailed discussion of the morphology, distribution, biology and evolution (including reference to fossil and molecular data) of Africa's mammals. With more than 1,160 species and 16-18 orders, Africa has the greatest diversity and abundance of mammals in the world. The reasons for this and the mechanisms behind their evolution are given special attention in the series. Each volume follows the same format, with detailed profiles of every species and higher taxa. The series includes hundreds of colour illustrations and pencil drawings by Jonathan Kingdon highlighting the morphology and behaviour of the species concerned, as well as line drawings of skulls and jaws by Jonathan Kingdon and Meredith Happold. Every species also includes a detailed distribution map. Edited by Jonathan Kingdon, David Happold, Tom Butynski, Mike Hoffmann, Meredith Happold and Jan Kalina, and written by more than 350 authors, all experts in their fields, Mammals of Africa is as comprehensive a compendium of current knowledge as is possible. Extensive references alert readers to more detailed information. Volume IV, edited by Meredith Happold and David Happold, contains profiles of 156 species of insectivores, comprising the hedgehogs and shrews. The rest of the volume is devoted to the 224 species of African bats. The latter are divided into nine families, namely fruit bats, horseshoe bats, leaf-nosed bats, false vampire bats, mouse-tailed bats, sheath-tailed bats, slit-faced bats, free-tailed bats and vesper bats.

Book excerpt: The Central African Copperbelt, encompassing the mining communities of Katanga (DR Congo) and Zambia, has been central to the study of modernization and rapid social and political change in urban Africa. This volume expands upon earlier studies of industrial mining, male-dominated formal labor organization and political change by examining both sides of the border from pre-colonial history to the present and encompassing a wide range of economic, social and cultural identities and activities. Bringing together scholars from a range of disciplines, the contributors explore copperbelt communities' sense of identity - expressed in love stories, comic strips and football matches, their precarious and inventive ways of living, their involvement in church and education, and the processes and impact of urbanization and development, environmental degradation and changing gender relations. A major contribution to borderland studies, in showing how the meaning and relevance of the border to the copperbelt's mixed and mobile population has changed constantly over time, the book's engagement with communities at the nexus of social, economic and political change makes it a key study for those working in global urban development.MILES LARMER is Professor of African History, University of Oxford; ENID GUENE is Research Associate in Cultural History, University of Oxford; BENOT HENRIET is Assistant Professor in History, Vrije Universiteit Brussels; IVA PESA is Assistant Professor in History, University of Groningen ; RACHEL TAYLOR is Research Associate in the History of Haut Katanga (DRC), African Studies Centre, University of Oxford.This book is available under the Creative Commons license CC-BY-NC.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Five Weeks in a Balloon: A Voyage of Exploration and Discovery in Central Africa Dr. Samuel Fergusson his projected Journey how to accomplish it. - Dick Kennedy his attempts at Dissuasion their Failure. There have been disputes as to the originator of the great idea of traversing the African continent, in a manner to be independent of its multitudinous and deadly obstrue tions; but the subjoined narrative will, we cannot doubt, be sufficient to assure the reader that the man who under took, and in the face of unexampled difficulties carried out, the project, conceived it, and stands indebted to no one for the honours now accumulating on the name of Dr. Samuel Fergusson. Among men of science, the claims of any other than Fergusson to this invention of a method of, as it were, laying bare the bosom of a mighty continent at one blow.
