"This volume brings valuable perspectives to understandings of 'the book' across Africa, presenting a diversity of linguistic and publishing contexts and genuinely innovative research. ... provides a timely corrective to commonly held assumptions that Africa's publishing future will be exclusively digital, and a sobering reminder of the need to engage at the level of the basic economic and publishing realities of both print and electronic publishing in Africa." (Stephanie Kitchen, Logos, Vol. 27 (4), 2016) "The Book in Africa is recommended for all African studies collections, library and information science departments, as well as collections on publishing and book studies, print culture, and book history." Hans M. Zell, The African Book Publishing Record
