Publisher's Note
This work provides a comprehensive study of African emigrants in the United States and the role they may play in contributing to Africa's development in the 1990s. Apraku focuses on four main questions: Who are the skilled African emigrants employed in the United States? Why did they come to America? What potential role can they play in Africa's development? and What types of reforms are needed to allow them to contribute to Africa's development? The book also addresses contemporary African issues, such as food production, privatization, economic integration, democratization, and economic aid.

Industry Reviews
In order to seize control of its destiny, Apraku contends, Africa must mobilize all of its resources, and recognize the contributions that emigrants in the US can make toward its development. Apraku offers a comprehensive look at these emigrants, demonstrating that Africa has well-trained, experienced, and productive personnel in the US, and that they are willing to return to their native lands only if African leaders are willing to undertake the necessary political and economic reforms.
