1 Newman, James L. THE PEOPLING OF AFRICA A Geographic Interpretation
Yale University Press 1995 0300060033 / 9780300060034 Hardcover As New in Fine dust jacket 
Illustrated (Maps and Photographs) . "African identities constitute one of Newman's main themes; thus he discusses the roles played by genetic background, language, occupation, and religion. Population distribution is the other main theme. As a geographer, the author uses regions, spaces, and places as his filters for viewing how Af ricans have responded through time to differing natural and human environmental circumstances. Drawing on biology, archeology, lingistics, history, anthropology, and demography, as well as geography, Newman describes the richness and diversity of Africa's inhabitants, the technological changes that transformed their lives, the formation of polities, from small kin groups to states and empires, and the influence of external forces, paricularly the slave trade. " African history. Human geography - Africa. Prehistoric man - Africa. Population. ; tall 8vo 9" - 10" tall; 235 pp
