Medical research has been central to biomedicine in Africa for over a century, and Africa, along with other tropical areas, has been crucial to the development of medical science. At present, study populations in Africa participate in an increasing number of medical research projects and clinical trials, run by both public institutions and private companies. Global debates about the politics and ethics of this research are growing and local concerns are prompting calls for social studies of the “trial communities” produced by this scientific work. Drawing on rich, ethnographic and historiographic material, this volume represents the emergent field of anthropological inquiry that links Africanist ethnography to recent concerns with science, the state, and the culture of late capitalism in Africa.

Описание: "An intriguing tale of faith, persecution and courage." The Angel of Antioch takes place 200-years before Jesus of Nazareth, during the murderous reign of Emperor Antiochus Epiphanes. A stranger appears in Antioch's Great House of Prayer. Speaking words filled with power and wisdom, some believe he is an angel, and others a prophet. But the religious leaders reject his words, considering him a dangerous fool. Soon the Empire's capital is embroiled in conflict over the stranger, some believing him good and others evil. The Angel of Antioch is a parable-like story of faith, persecution and courage that reads like scripture.
