While we pay tribute to Professors Wiseman and Hughes, we should also recognise the scholarly works of yet another friend of The Gambia, the late Prof. Margaret Haswell a social anthropologist/economist. She has written extensively on rural development and devouted a good part of her academic life to the study of the village of Geineri(LRD). Her long association with and study of Geineri started in 1947; then a student. This remarkable British lady has left an indelible mark on the village of Geineri and to many a life in rural Gambia. I owe her a debt of gratitute for teaching me how to put a human face to the numbers. To Arnold Hughes, I pray for a remission of this horrible illness. sidi sanneh ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe/subscribe or view archives of postings, go to the Gambia-L Web interface at: http://maelstrom.stjohns.edu/archives/gambia-l.html ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
