This is a place where ethics can be lost and where enormous good can be done; it is where Africa’s future will be made.   Pamela Watson, a one-time intrepid cyclist who peddled her way solo across Africa, embarked on a thrilling five-year entrepreneurial journey in Lagos in 2005. While running a successful hand-made paper social enterprise, she navigated the city's bewildering scale and complexity and experienced first hand the devastating human cost of its often corrupt system.    Gibbous Moon Over Lagos explores whether Lagos’s gibbous moon is waxing to full or waning back to the dark side — whether young, entrepreneurial Nigerians can succeed in a city with yawning social inequality — and details what happened to Pamela’s own cycle of business adventures. Along the way, we gain rare insight into this megacity of contradictions — as full of opportunity as it is of hazards. What becomes clear is that the effervescent, hard-working and brutally self-critical Lagosians are determining chasing dreams in this untamed urban environment, regardless.    Gibbous Moon Over Lagos is a timely and inspiring read for those keen to know an Africa that challenges old stereotypes.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":50930099355921,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50930099585297,"sku":"GOR010407798","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":51767755342097,"sku":"GOR014394969","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1743795602.jpg?v=1751247894"},{"product_id":"esprit-de-battuta-book-pamela-watson-9781743795736","title":"Esprit de Battuta","description":"Esprit de Battuta: Alone Across Africa on a Bicycle is the story of one woman’s exciting travel adventure through Africa – before mobile phones and before easy Internet access – alone and on a bicycle.   Australian-born and London-based Pamela Watson had a comfortable, if overworked existence, as a management consultant but yearned for freedom and the adventure. “That’s it!” she thought. “I’ll cycle across Africa!”     Join her on this intoxicating journey that began as a search for adventure and turned into a journey of self-discovery. Along the way she discovers companionship and compassion, and injustices that burn through the page. Cycling for a year and a half, covering nearly 15,000 kilometres and crossing seventeen countries, she encountered an Africa rarely reported in the media and experienced first-hand the violent tinderbox of local politics. She discovers women are the backbone of rural Africa and is shocked to learn their responsibilities are not matched by their access to basic human rights.     Now in its third edition, Esprit de Battuta is a must-read for all armchair adventurers, those who are curious about the everyday lives of the people of the rural villages of Africa and those who dare to challenge the status quo.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50952883405073,"sku":"GOR012057902","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1743795734.jpg?v=1751184960"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/de-ch\/collections\/autor-buecher-von-pamela-watson.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
