| Sommario/riassunto: | "Disability in African contexts can hardly be understood without reference to the technology of daily life, in terms of mobility and transportation, learning, and medical interventions. It brings a human and social perspective to disability because it contextualizes technology in the framework of users, inventors, producers, and distributors. Technology in the African contexts requires an understanding of cultural practices and innovation at the local and international levels. This book provides examples from the DR Congo and also from Anglophone countries."--Page 4 of cover. |
