I got a mailing from the Indian University Press the other day, and thought
I'd share with you the 3 listings on African cinema. I'm not sure of these
prices, as there seems to be discounts for some people. To order call 800
842 6796; fax 812 855 7931, or email to iuporder@indiana.edu
cheers, Steve Smith
