    Information Technology and Africa

    ₦5,000.00 – ₦9,000.00

    “Mastery over New Technologies is a sine qua non for resetting Africa for great development strides.” – Dr Evans E. Woherem

    In this instructive and far-reaching book, Dr Evans E. Woherem presents the technological antecedents of Africa in the context of the continent’s position as an unheralded pioneer in technology. The author explains Africa’s absence from previous industrial revolutions and advocates for the continent’s advantage in harnessing the fourth industrial revolution (4IR).

    The book’s focus on policies—government and nongovernmental—and other interventions that can contribute to growth in Africa will be of great use to students and policy makers alike. It also provides an understanding of the exponential technologies and what organisations, universities, countries, and individuals can do to master these technologies for the continent’s development.

    “What Dr Woherem has created is a blueprint for how Africa can move forward. But it’s also a book for anyone from any country seeking a deeper understanding of how the technologies propelling us into the future can be systematically harnessed and implemented.” – Robin Raskin, Founder, The Virtual Events Group (VEG)
