This book contributes to the debate over the culpability of the Trans-Atlantic Slave from various disciplinary perspectives. The general thesis that undergirds the book is that by knowing who was predisposed to benefit the most from the trade and why; prompting them to initiate it; appropriate culpability can be assigned. This approach also allowed for a more in-depth analysis of the issue from many disciplines; making it the first of its kind. For the sake of cohesion and coherence; some of the major questions addressed by every chapter are quite similar; albeit authors were encouraged to fine-tune and add to these questions to meet their disciplinary requirements. By emphasizing the why in some of the questions; a qualitative explanatory case study approach was utilized. Both primary and secondary data sources were also used for each chapter to offer a cogent analysis and new information on the topic.
