of the challenges that big businesses face in the developing world:
the opportunities, pitfalls, political and personal challenges
involved. Babs Omotowa has spent his life rejecting the status quo.

targets has helped big businesses to revolutionize their approach
in the developing world. The remarkable story of 'Hurricane Babs' -

This Handbook provides solutions to the fundamental issues
associated with wells and reservoirs experiencing sanding problems,
especially in deepwater environments. Sand Management is a massive
challenge for the petroleum industry as it extends its exploration
activities to new frontiers. Challenging ultra deepwater, High
Pressure-High Temperature (HP-HT) and Arctic environments require
engineers to drill more complex wells and manage more complex
reservoirs, the majority of which are prone to massive sand
production. Covering such fundamentals as how to maximize
individual wells and field development performance, as well as how
to minimize operational cost, non-productive time and guarantee
flow assurance across the entire composite production system from
reservoirs through the wellbore to the topside and flow lines, this
handbook explains that the biggest challenge facing operators is
the shortage of sand management personnel and helps companies
realize the value of their assets.

This work is a collection of Carl Wenicke's lectures on
neuropsychiatry translated into English for the first time.
Beginning with basic concepts about normal brain function, the book
moves to clinical topics, dealing first with chronic mental
disorders and 'paranoid states', and then to the more complex area
of acute mental disorders. Many of the featured topics are still
clinically relevant, and matters of contemporary debate. Carl
Wernicke is one of the pioneers of neurology and psychiatry;
clinicians, researchers and historians will find this of great
interest.

First published in 1982, Education in Africa offers a comprehensive
treatment of the development of education in Africa. Until now only
scattered documents on educational growth in individual countries
have been available; works devoted to Africa as a whole have tended
towards the general and have, by and large, been written by outside
observers. This book is a collection of illuminating syntheses of
major trends in educational development in Africa, by renowned
African educationists, and is the first attempt to supply the need
for a comprehensive book on African education written from an
African viewpoint. All but one of the chapters were written
specially for the book by leading African educators each of whom
has had a distinguished career and wide experience in education in
his or her own country; they represent eleven nations in all. The
volume is designed for African students, teachers and
administrators and will also be welcomed by educational planners
and by scholars working in the fields of comparative education and
the history of education. It will be of special interest to
departments, institutions and faculties of education in all the
universities and colleges of education in Africa, and to educators
and students worldwide who are concerned with comparative African
education.
