Literature summaries and reviews

The bibliography is arranged from the general to the specific, starting with a general or global examination of the literature and continuing with sections on Africa, East Africa, and each of the nine above-mentioned countries. The general literature is quite extensive, reflecting an increasing awareness of the problems of food, population, and energy as discrete topics and to a lesser extent their interrelationship, but studies specific to Africa and East Africa have been more difficult to discover. The difference in the coverage for each country is due to availability of material and temporal limitations, Kenya and Tanzania having the most references. Each entry includes a description of scope and contents; some include an evaluation and/or summary of findings. The bibliography includes items in French and German, and spans the period l934-80.
