Drawing on ethnography, scientific publications, private archives, and interviews, Jacobs asks: How did white ornithologists both depend on and operate distinctively from African birders? What investment did African birders have in collaborating with ornithologists? By distilling the interactions between European science and African vernacular knowledge, this stunningly illustrated work offers a fascinating examination of the colonial and postcolonial politics of expertise about nature. 000859145 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000859145 650_0 $$aBird watchers$$zAfrica$$xHistory. 000859145 650_0 $$aOrnithologists$$zAfrica$$xHistory. 000859145 650_0 $$aTraditional ecological knowledge$$zAfrica. 000859145 650_0 $$aOrnithology$$zAfrica$$xHistory. 000859145 650_0 $$aEthnozoology$$zAfrica. 000859145 650_0 $$aTaxidermists$$zAfrica$$xHistory. 000859145 650_0 $$aEthnoscience$$zAfrica. 000859145 650_0 $$aBirds$$zAfrica. 000859145 650_0 $$aBirds$$zAfrica$$vNomenclature (Popular) 000859145 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aJacobs, Nancy J.$$tBirders of Africa.
