<p>
The birth of new nations, independent democracies, the defeat of settler colonialism, the unprecedented growth of cities from Lagos to Cairo; the African continent is booming. So why do myths about underdevelopment, unproductive land and unfounded concerns about overpopulation remain?In a sprawling new account of Africa's developmental history, writer and economist Joe Studwell debunks long-held views about the continent's presumed resistance to growth, charting monumental changes in government, demography and asset management.   Considering everything from settler colonialism to soil conditions, mineral extractivism to disease development and eradication, and across case studies from Rwanda to Botswana, Studwell persuasively argues that the seizing back of land, people and states across Africa, has also been the seizure of mass economic development.  From slavery to independence and beyond, this is the definitive account of the world's second largest continent - and an optimistic look to its future.</p>

Textiles have been a highly valued part of many Indigenous societies across the world and over millennia. This pathbreaking book examines the large woven ceremonial cloths known as <i>pua kumbu</i>, long associated with the Iban peoples of the interior of Sarawak, Malaysia. In both scholarly and popular studies of these sacred cloths, the process of creating <i>pua kumbu</i> is identified explicitly with the women who weave them, using oral tradition for the passing on of designs and practice, in a task that is skilful, physically demanding and strenuous. Based on more than a decade of ethnographic fieldwork and collaborative engagement with a longhouse community, this study seeks to break new ground, both empirically and conceptually. It is framed around a number of key themes: the origins, symbolism and use of the cloths; the place of female weavers in Iban society; the creative tension between conservation, innovation and transformation; and the significance of insider Indigenous knowledge for sustainable community development. <i>Enriching Iban Pua Kumbu</i> is a valuable work for advanced students, researchers and general readers interested in the intersection of material culture, social status and community engagement, such as cultural anthropologists, archaeologists, economists, museum curators and historians.<br>
