5.0 out of 5 stars
brilliant
I found this to be a excellent introduction to African History. The authors present the complexity of African History very well and do so in a way that is respectful to Africans. I especially appriciated the attention to common mistakes about Africa.

Africa in World History Review
This book is good, except it does not use the most academic language. It seems to be for high school or middle school readers rather than college or beyond.

Body-State Metaphor,
By clopha deshotel (Bridgeport CT) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Africa in World History: From Prehistory to the Present (Paperback)
I began looking at the dramatic changes in Tanzania with several Middle School students when a parent suggested this book by Reynolds. It is certainly a good read. Our first exposure to the world's oldest political metaphor (body-state metaphor of Aesop's Fable BELLY and the MEMBERS) came through a friend in Cameroon, another influential ex-colony. The list goes on and it was hard for us to pick a favorite chapter. We will place this one next to our most popular non-textbook.
