Wananchi The subject of language is interesting and matters of language have far-reaching implications. We should debate this on a number of aspects such as (a) expressiveness for effective communication and considering that people tend to think in their first language and translate into the language of communication; (b) the national unity question (TZ is a good example); (c) the cultural content/heritage/history/etc inherent in those language (of course granted that culture is dynamic and static cultures are prescriptions for doom); etc. Our sister business (Nsemia Inc Publishers) has recently collaborated with a number of academic in the subject. The result is a collection of 14 academic research papers titled: Themes in Language, Education and Development in Kenya (see attached flier for details). The book will be in circulation in Kenya in December 2011. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Matunda Nyanchama, PhD, CISSP; [email protected] Agano Consulting Inc.; www.aganoconsulting.com; Twitter: nmatunda; Skype: okiambe ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Be prepared to face ICT Security failures & know how to respond when they happen!
