Reviews

'I consider this book the first of its kind on the issue of African-Centered Management Education. The author provides thought-provoking and radical input on a subject that is most crucial for Africa to successfully meet its development objectives and positively change its economic trajectory. It is an invaluable contribution to much needed management literature from an African perspective.'Neville Gertze, Ambassador of Namibia to Germany
