African Friends and Money Matters started as notes for Westerners when they traveled and worked in Africa by providing a lens to understand customs and cultures outside of their home culture. Maranz uses his experiences in Africa to discuss how different cultures manage money, time, and personal relationships, and how these differences sometimes result in friction and misunderstanding. He prompts the reader to reflect on the different goals of African and Western economic systems, and shares ninety specific observations he made regarding money while living in Africa.Filled with personal anecdotes, this book is a valuable entry-point for Westerners to understand non-western cultures. It captures the interest of Westerners living in or visiting Sub-Saharan Africa, including: business, diplomatic, NGO personnel, religious workers, journalists, and tourists. The readership also includes professors and students of African Studies. Readers will also be interested in what it reveals about Western culture. In this edition, the content has been extensively reviewed, including errata corrections from the prior edition and a more complete introduction.Now Available as an Audio Book.
