I have it and it's a good book. [/qb][/QUOTE]The book is called Afrikan Alphabets: The Story of Writing in Afrika. It's a good book. Very visual. I like it. It is also appropriate for children imo (especially those who likes arts, forms, history, drawing and curious in general). It is the type of book some children could read/browse fast, but never forget it, if you know what I mean. [/qb][/QUOTE]I just checked Amazon. They want 500 dollars for that darn book. [/qb][/QUOTE]Sorry, I didn't know about that. When I bought it, it didn't cost nearly as much (they put it on the rare item category i guess). Maybe there's some other places online with some better prices. Here's a link to a video presentation by Saki Mafundikwa: http://www.ted.com/talks/saki_mafundikwa_ingenuity_and_elegance_in_ancient_african_alphabets.html [/QB][/QUOTE]
