The third in a series that evaluates underused African plant resources, this title examines 24 indigenous African cultivated and wild fruits that have potential to help broaden Africa's food supply. Each fruit is discussed in the context of its ability to help overcome malnutrition, boost food security, foster rural development, and create sustainable landcare. The book is sectioned into cultivated and wild fruits, with each section containing introductory materials on the potential roles for the fruits and summaries as well as detailed information on species, including prospects, uses, nutrition, horticulture, limitations, and next steps. Recommended for persons involved in rural or agrarian policy-making in Africa. Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
