I did not like it because I never have seen Africa as a dark continent or one of fierce animals or tribes. I know that Africa is civilized and I did not like the author making "all or none" statements about his opinion of what others think. He did not cite any of these remarks.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Required Reading for Son's College CourseBy Kimberly SchrimpfRequired Reading for Son's College Course; excellent deal; son learned a lot from this book; very interesting according to him and he's not a fan of reading. :)0 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Enjoyable but doesn't stick to the thesis - what Africa is notBy djfgreeneKeim's purpose is tell what Africa is not. He doesn't stick to that purpose and goes far afield in explaining the development of racial ideology in the West. He discusses African images in the Western mind but forgets to delve deeply into what isn't African. He does a fine job of challenging popular opinion of what the West believes Africa is - poor; diseased; economically disadvantaged. He clears up those myths. For that it's worthwhile. Not for an advanced scholar but excellent for a casual reader.
