Summary: "This book addresses a number of issues of contemporary relevance. It considers the conflict between traditional African rulers and the modern state, the relationship between demography and environmental change, the history of STDs, and the impact of cash-cropping on rural inequality. The book also examines one society's reaction to a period of prolonged, rapid population decline, a trauma that seems likely to become ever more common in Africa in years to come."--Jacket.
