...The most intresting part of Mr. Trump is the logical fallacy he uses to exaggrations situations that conflict with reality. Cooper points out Mr. Trump’s many exagerations of America as “ borderline-apocalyptic rhetoric” which is true as Mr. Trump describes fallen buisness as “rusted out factories scattered like tomestones” putting a new connotation to the ruins of factories other than just some run down dangous building filled with asbestos. Moreover, the why he goes on about the “education system flushed with cash, but which leaves our young and beautiful students deprived of all knowledge” as if teacher aren’t doing their jobs right and already doing their best. The school system has never been “flushed with cash” because if they were schools...

...Acknowledgments ix Acknowledgments This book owes a great deal to the mental energy of several generations of scholars. As an undergraduate at the University of Cape Town, Francis Wilson made me aware of the importance of migrant labour and Robin Hallett inspired me, and a generation of students, to study the African past. At the School of Oriental and African Studies in London I was fortunate enough to have David Birmingham as a thesis supervisor. I hope that some of his knowledge and understanding of Lusophone Africa has found its way into this book. I owe an equal debt to Shula Marks who, over the years, has provided me with criticism and inspiration. In the United States I learnt a great deal from ]eanne Penvenne, Marcia Wright and, especially, Leroy Vail. In Switzerland I benefitted from the friendship and assistance of Laurent Monier of the IUED in Geneva, Francois Iecquier of the University of Lausanne and Mariette Ouwerhand of the dépurtement évangélrlyue (the former Swiss Mission). In South Africa, Patricia Davison of the South African Museum introduced me to material culture and made me aware of the richness of difference; the late Monica Wilson taught me the fundamentals of anthropology and Andrew Spiegel and Robert Thornton struggled to keep me abreast of changes in the discipline; Sue Newton-King and Nigel Penn brought shafts of light from the eighteenthcentury to bear on early industrialism. Charles van Onselen laid a major part of the intellectual foundations on...
