The image of Africa among Americans at the beginning of the 21st century is tragic; America's image among Africans is of a place that is splendid but arrogant and unfeeling. Both have large elements of truth. Poverty coups corruption pandemic disease and tribal racial and religious violence are all too common in Africa. So too is Americans' lack of concern about the people of a continent that suffers from these tragedies as well as their government's support for African governments that treat their people as prey instead of citizens. The A to Z of United States-Africa Relations encompasses the relationship between the two from the trans-Atlantic slave trade to the George W. Bush administration with particular emphasis on the Cold War. It focuses on political and economic aspects of the relationship and includes cultural relations.

Best.-Nr. B9780804010184Paperback / softback. New. "Mysticism is peculiar to the mountainbred" Frank Waters once told an interviewer for Psychology Today. And in Mountain Dialogues available for the first time in paperback the mountainbred Waters proves it true. Ranging over such diverse subjects as silence spirits time change and the sacred mountains of the world Waters sounds again and again the radiant mystic theme of man's inherent wholeness and his oneness with the cosmos. Writing in Western American Literature Charles L. Adams said "In Mountain Dialogues we see Frank Waters acknowledging his sources--major influences on a great American thinker and writer. Waters weaves together threads of these influences adds his own thought and presents us with a truly cosmic overview. This overview is thoroughly that of an American 'Westerner'; it also is one that merits international consideration." And as the Bloomsbury Review wrote: "Mountain Dialogues is more than just a collection of personal essays. It is an 'evolutionist's handbook' for the sons and daughters of the new West a guide for those who would transcend the limitations of Western civilization." paperback
