I picked up title in a used bookstore in the outskirts of Denver. After finishing "Affluent Society" one morning, I read through this baby that same afternoon and evening.
Concentrating solely on African societies effected by colonization, I was quite upset to see that the tribes of the Americas and Asia were not mentioned. Also, the groups mentioned in the book appear to have been already influenced by the colonial powers of the day. A better title for the book after reading its last half would have been "The Limited Self-Governments of Colonial Subject in Africa".
If you can pick up this title in a thrift shop, go for it, but you don't need to go through he trouble of ordering it off of Amazon.
