520    "The Scarcity Slot is the first book to critically examine
       food security in Africa's deep past. Amanda L. Logan 
       argues that African foodways have been viewed through the 
       lens of 'the scarcity slot,' a kind of Othering based on 
       presumed differences in resources. Weaving together 
       archaeological, historical, and environmental data with 
       food ethnography, she advances a new approach to building 
       long-term histories of food security on the continent in 
       order to combat these stereotypes. Focusing on a case 
       study in Banda, Ghana that spans the past six centuries, 
       The Scarcity Slot reveals that people thrived during a 
       severe, centuries-long drought just as Europeans arrived 
       on the coast, with a major decline in food security 
       emerging only recently. This narrative radically 
       challenges how we think about African foodways in the past
       with major implications for the future"--|cProvided by
