This open access book investigates psychiatry in Uganda during the years of decolonisation. It examines the challenges facing a new generation of psychiatrists as they took over responsibility for psychiatry at the end of empire, and explores the ways psychiatric practices were tied to shifting political and development priorities, periods of instability, and a broader context of transnational and international exchange. At its heart is a question that has concerned psychiatrists globally since the mid-twentieth century: how to bridge the social and cultural gap between psychiatry and its patients? Bringing together archival research with oral histories, Yolana Pringle traces how this question came to dominate both national and international discussions on mental health care reform, includ...

Ancient Egypt is seen through the eyes of the author as she and her son visit in 1980. On a camel ride out into the desert scattered with huge pyramids, they're invited into the tent of an old Egyptian man who serves them tea—and she wonders, have their cups ever been washed?
She tells of their travel by rail from Frankfurt, Germany, with a day's stopover in Rome, Italy, and along the coast of Greece to Athens; then by air they are off to Cairo.
After a few days in that ancient city they rent a car to begin a trip south through small towns along the Nile River to Luxor. The Karnak Temple has stood there for over a thousand years and its ruins are spectacular, as is the light show that reflects into a lake. One day they ride to the sweltering Valley of the Queens, and the n...

Ancient chariots of the Sahara (The forgotten civilisations of Africa)
The war chariot pulled by horses is one of the most prestigious inventions ever. It is common to think that any invention in the Ancient Times, any form of civilization can only come from the East. It is the same for the invention of the chariot.
But what is the reality?
The war chariot drawn by horses was introduced in East and Ancient Egypt, around 1900 before Christ, by invaders that had swept the ancient civilizations of Mesopotamia, Babylonia, Palestine, Syria and in Egypt. Then these invaders settled and created new civilizations in the East and in Egypt.
Who are they and where do they come from?
For the Egyptologists, these invaders who destabilized the pharaonic power in Egypt are Palestinians. However, Palestine is itself destroy...

South African Riches: Diamond and Gold Industry
South African Riches: Diamond and Gold Industry.
This Book Walks You through the Diamond and Gold industry in the Republic of South Africa.
South Africa is a land of contrasts, and beneath the amazingly varied landscape lies the richest mineral treasure trove man has ever unearthed in a confined region. The country is bed to almost every precious metal, stone and mineral on the periodic table albeit in varying degrees: from miniscule traces to quantities of untold value.
Mineral exploitation in the southernmost state of Africa dates back to the Stone Age but modern commercial mining can be traced circa 1852 when the first copper mine was established on the Springbokfontein farm (modern day town of Springbok) in the region of Namaqualand in the Northe...

This book explores the life and work of Mary Elizabeth Barber, a British-born settler scientist who lived in the Cape during the nineteenth century. It provides a lens into a range of subjects within the history of knowledge and science, gender and social history, postcolonial, critical heritage and archival studies. The book examines the international importance of the life and works of a marginalized scientist, the instrumentalisation of science to settlers' political concerns and reveals the pivotal but largely silenced contribution of indigenous African experts. Including a variety of material, visual and textual sources, this study explores how these artefacts are archived and displayed in museums and critically analyses their content and silences. The book traces Barber’s legacy ac...

Enjoy Captivating Stories of the Gods, Goddesses, Monsters, and MortalsFrom what we know of history, Egypt, along with Sumer, were the foundations of civilization. The Fertile Crescent, which stretched from the Nile Valley to the twin rivers in Mesopotamia, gave us our earliest glimpse of organized man. But organized how? For one, both locations gave us writing—hieroglyphics in Egypt and cuneiform in Sumer. There is still some debate about who was first.In this book, we will start by looking at the gods and goddesses of Kemet—Ancient Egypt. Then, we will turn our attention to the monsters which likely gave them nightmares and humbled them in their quest to bring order to the world around them.Finally, we will look at the mortals which shaped their civilization and made Egypt the bedroc...

In his book, WE ARE ALL THE SAME SPECIES, John N G Muyenzi expresses his concern that humanity, in general, seems to have learned little, if anything at all, from the horrors of the 1994 genocide against the Tutsi in his country Rwanda. Illustrating his point of view from incidents and personal experiences (ranging from the amusing to the sad, poignant and even tragic) gathered during a life, first as a young boy living in colonial Rwanda, then as a refugee in Uganda and Kenya and finally back in Rwanda after the genocide against the Tutsi, John paints a picture of a human species in danger of self-destruction. He argues that the most likely cause of the demise of our species is war in spite of the stark frightening precedents of two devastating world wars and numerous other murderous arme...

The Term Democracy throughout the Islamic History
The long-lasting swell of the „Arab Spring“ [arab. al-Rabīʻ al-ʻArabī], a Nations Movement which has extended from its Birthplace in Tunisia to the Arabian Peninsula and beyond, was at its core a national call for social and political change and security, fairness and equality under a noncorrupted rule of law. Most importantly it was a „Bread Revolution“ [arab. thawrat al-ʻaysh], reflecting the radical hardships of affording nourishments the people have been facing daily.For similar demands, the people of Egypt, Libya, Sudan, and Algeria aroused and infected States such as Syria, Yemen, and Bahrain. Through my researches I was aiming to discover the realism behind some voices chanting for Democracy during the revolutionary „Arab Spring“ uprisings all over the Middle East a...
