The Rift Valley zone in East Africa may be regarded as an aborted ocean of long existence but never significantly opened up. Distensive regimes of tectonic up-doming, eruptivity and subsidence on normal faults, and median positive gravity anomalies complicating the wide negative gravity anomaly of Bullard must now be fitted into any model for the Rift Valley. The petrological and geochemical nature of the eruptives is equally important: it is common to equate the abundance of salic volcanics...

Cainozoic alkaline volcanics associated with the Kenya Rift Valley have an estimated total volume of about 144,000 km3. Basalts were erupted repeatedly and account for more than half this volume. The most strongly alkaline basalts occur in Miocene flows which flooded a proto-rift depression in northern Kenya. Post-Miocene basalts of the rift floor are less undersaturated (Niggli qz. value = −28) than those east of the rift (qz = −37). Some basalts at the rift margins show affinities with...

The effect of supplementary dietary protein on humoral immune capacity was assessed in overtly healthy New Guinean children aged 9-11 years attending the Bundi school. The supplemented group received an additional 25 g. of dietary protein, and the control group received the usual daily intake of about 10 g. protein. The supplemented group produced significantly more antibody after primary immunisation with flagellin than did the control group. Augmented antibody responses in the supplemented...

Historically a poor, unindustrialized country, Nigeria since the civil war faces many problems of reconstruction and development, including the necessity of attaining a more stable economy, a high contribution of agriculture to the Gross Domestic Product, and the encouragement of literacy and more innovative approaches among the farmers. It is hoped that a work‐oriented functional literacy programme, based upon scientific farming and farm management principles, will effect attitude changes...

In Africa, as in other parts of the world, most people have traditionally acquired their skills, knowledge, and attitudes from institutions other than formal schools. Even where formal school systems have been established (a relatively recent phenomenon), it is still difficult to separate the impact of schooling from that of one's family, community, cultural and social institutions, and training on the job. But it has increasingly become apparent in all countries that learning acquired in a...
