Yes, I was glad to run across reference to it. Too many resources of traditional medicine being lost. Thousands of hand written pages from libraries of Timbuktu, Mali in danger of being lost because of shortage or translators and money. Covers medicine and science. http://archive.understandingslavery.com/index.php-option=com_content&view=article&id=378&Itemid=233.html
