Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These essays, compiled and introduced by Gloria Thomas-Emeagwali, represent an important collection of African scientific history and historiography. The writers concentrate on the different aspects of technological and scientific experiments and the processes and procedures which exemplify a live tradition. The book shows that the scientific spirit is not isolated to a particular group of people, nor to a particular region, but to the whole of Nigeria. The essays confirm the extent to which the scientific spirit has been a fundamental social activity in Nigeria in the pre- and post-colonial world: the quest for new technology, new methods of investigation and application, remains a foundation of Nigerian society upon which innovations are being introduced to lend to the inherited scientific

Download or read book Nigeria s Adventures in Technology written by Dike N. Kalu and published by Outskirts Press. This book was released on 2015-11-19 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nigeria's Adventures in Technology deals with important scientific and technological issues mainly as they pertain to Nigeria. The author calls for a revolution in science and technology in Nigeria since these enterprises have so far failed to thrive in the country. The reasons for this failure, according to the author, go beyond Nigeria's endemic corruption which will frustrate any societal developmental effort in the country no matter how well-meaning. Fortunately the causes of the failure are obvious to the author who not only identifies them but also offers simple solutions that will ultimately ensure the feasibility of using science and technology, the acknowledged instruments of development, to advance socioeconomic growth in Nigeria. In pursuance of his plea for Nigeria to do more than just pay lip service to science and technology and to promote a better understanding of technological issues by the Nigerian public, in a second essay the author discusses the underpinnings of nuclear power which Nigeria recently embraced; he then explores satellite technology in view of the recent successful launching of two Nigerian satellites into orbit; finally the author surveys the issue of life expectancy which should be of interest to all Nigerians in view of the abysmally short mean length of life in the country. Professor Dike N Kalu purposefully wrote this book in a layman's language and made it concise with a total of only 86 pages so that anyone can read it in a very short time. Nigeria's Adventures in Technology is a must-read for every Nigerian especially policy makers, politicians, the youths, high school teachers, professors, university and high school students, and international friends and well-wishers of Nigeria.

Book excerpt: 1993. Houston. Dr. Wale Olufunmi, lunar rock geologist, has a life most Nigerian immigrants would kill for, but then most Nigerians aren't Wale--a great scientific mind in exile with galactic ambitions. Then comes an outlandish order: steal a piece of the moon. With both personal and national glory at stake, Wale manages to pull off the near impossible, setting out on a journey back to Nigeria that leads anywhere but home. Compelled by Wale's impulsive act, Nigerians traces arcs in time and space from Houston to Stockholm, from Cape Town to Bulawayo, picking up on the intersecting lives of a South African abalone smuggler, a freedom fighter's young daughter, and Wale's own ambitious son. Deji Olukotun's debut novel defies categorization, a story of international intrigue that tackles deeper questions about exile, identity, and the need to answer an elusive question: what exactly is brain gain? -- Back cover.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This is a public lecture to commemorate the 16th Anniversary of the "Scientific Revival Day for Africa", organized by the African Technology Policy Studies (ATPS) Network. A recapitulation of the evolution of Nigeria's Science and Technology (S & T) Policy is presented, in order to highlight certain hot issues arising from where we are coming, where we are, and where we should be going. These hot issues are linked with the priorities arising from the August/September 2002 World Summit on Sustainable Development (WSSD) at Johannesburg, South Africa vis-à-vis Nigeria's expected leadership role in the implementation of the New Partnership for Africa's Development (NEPAD). Beyond precepts, a specific example is given of a strategic partnership initiative whose time has come, namely, a new (submerged arc) technology (for sewage recycling) and an eliminator technology (for conversion of the sewage waste into a novel non-polluting fuel called Santilli magnegas) which could make considerable impact on a myriad of African problems in the areas of ecology, environment, health, portable [i.e. potable] water and energy."--Page v.
