Africa is so many things. One of those things is a major source of wealth...for the rest of the world. Gold, silicon, oil, boxite, diamonds, cocoa, cotton, tea, coffee, platinum and many other goods aree shipped from Africa to the rest of the world, especially Europe and America. Yet so little of the wealth produced comes back home to improve the lives of African people. This is a classic work on the history of the situaiton.
