To illuminate how a group of equatorial Africans understands environmental change, Giles-Vernick (history, City U. of New York- Baruch College) examines the changing intellectual tools and content of environmental and historical perceptions and knowledge among Mpiemu people who lived in the middle and upper Sangha River basin of the Central African Republic during the 20th century.
