Another Africa is a book that fuses photographs, poetry, and text to create a view of present-day Africa that moves beyond the stereotypes commonly held by most westerners: an open-air ethnographic museum, a continent in constant turmoil, a vast expanse of beautiful sand dunes and tropical savannas where herds of wildlife roam. This work peels away myths to explore the complexity, diversity, and human dimensions of a place called Africa--one that celebrates the commonplace and exotic simultaneously. The photographs are highly subjective, a personal investigation that reflects the sensibilities, formal concerns, and the ongoing engagement of the photographer in this part of the world. With the brilliant Chinua Achebe--a Nigerian--contributing his poems and an essay, the book takes on a further and critical dimension. He presents a concise view of Africa today, including the individual and political issues facing its countries. He deals with Africa on its own terms--from within, not from an outsider's perspective.

Researchers believe that Indium may help you look and feel years, even decades, younger by performing two important functions unlike any other essential nutrients. Two reasons why you need the trace mineral Indium. Robert Lyons, Naturapathic Doctor, presents evidence that Indium may: 1. Dramatically increase essential trace mineral absorption in liver, heart, kidneys, spleen, and lungs where they are most needed. 2. Cause the hypothalamus to hypophysis biofeedback loop to release a cascade of youth-promoting hormones such as Human Growth Hormone (HGH), estrogen, testosterone, as well as hormones that stimulate the adrenals and the thyroid. Indium users report a burst of youthful benefits such as: more energy, strength, and stamina, enhanced senses of smell and taste, weight loss, restorative rejuvenating sleep, improvements in skin and hair tone and color, increased libido and better moods. Dr. Robert Lyons, N.D., currently teaches natural medicine at the Austrian TCM Academy and is a member of the EUTCM Association. He recently supervised an intensive clinical study on Alzheimer's Disease and Morbus Parkinson's using Indium in Bat Ischi, Austria. He is also the Central European Human Development Research Director in Budapest, Hungary. [Text from back of book].
