The Power of Babel: Language and Governance in the African Experience
ISBN: 9780226514291 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 235 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych.

In "The Power of Babel," the noted Africanist scholar Ali Mazrui and linguist Alamin Mazrui explore this vast territory...
