Kenya is a thriving country in East Africa: its economy is
largely based on the natural environment that frames the tourism
sector, mainly through safaris and holidays on the coast. The
natural environment also underpins the second largest industry:
agriculture. Kenya s social, technological, and industrial
developments are a reference for many neighboring countries. Kenya
plays a leading role in Africa and attracts huge amounts of
investments. Furthermore, the humanitarian community has made
Nairobi its base for international headquarters and regional
offices. This makes Kenya a possible model for development and
investment in its widest sense.
This book aims at updating the holistic view on Kenya s natural
environment and resources. It provides a sound scientific
introduction to this country s physical and socioeconomic setting
and its evolution through time and will appeal to a broad audience
of students in Kenya and abroad as well as those working in the
development and humanitarian sectors and to international donors
looking for a scientific compendium on Kenya s environment. Its
structure and references allow the reader to deepen his or her
knowledge of every theme touched on in the book.
