“In the first few pages of <i>Trends in African Studies, the authors establish this book as a valuable resource on African Studies. Jacob U. Gordon and Stephen Owoahene-Acheampong inform readers of the difference between African Studies and the study of Africa. A result of extensive study and surveys, Trends in African Studiesserves as an overview of African Studies history and a comprehensive review of current African Studies academic programs across the world. Further, it provides a look at “trends and challenges,” which ultimately leaves scholars across the globe with a resource that connects each with the other. Every library and program should purchase a copy.” – Dr. Tara T. Green, Director, African American Studies, University of North Carolina-Greensboro.
