Social and behaviour change interventions for contraception and family planning
This social and behaviour change interventions for contraception and family planning: implementation guidance for policy-makers and programme managers was developed to support policy-makers and programme managers in advocating for, implementing, managing and understanding the potential impact of social and behaviour change (SBC) interventions to improve contraceptive and family planning (FP) outcomes. The guidance has two sections. Section one makes the case for implementing and scaling SBC interventions to contribute to the achievement of contraceptive and family planning outcomes. This section will help users promote SBC interventions as part of a comprehensive national strategy to improve reproductive health outcomes. It further provides a clear rationale for integrating SBC interventions into national policies and programmes to achieve critical commitments and national policy goals. Section two describes a comprehensive process for designing, implementing, evaluating and scaling SBC interventions. This section will help users to integrate and scale evidence-based SBC interventions as a part of national programmes.

Anthropology of Reproduction: The Basics
Anthropology of Reproduction: The Basics is a clear and accessible guide to topics in reproduction from the perspective of anthropology, emphasizing the central importance of reproduction in human sociocultural and biological experience. It examines why reproduction matters so much to human beings and what anthropology offers to better understand their decisions about having or not having children, and their experiences with periods, infertility, contraception, abortion, pregnancy, pregnancy loss, birth, and care for children.

Directory of World Cinema: Africa
Eschewing the postcolonial hubris that suggests Africa could only define itself in relation to its colonizers, a problem plaguing many studies published in the West on African cinema, this entry in the Directory of World Cinema series instead looks at African film as representing Africa for its own sake, values, and artistic choices. With a film industry divided by linguistic heritage, African directors do not have the luxury of producing comedies, thrillers, horror films, or even love stories, except perhaps as DVDs that do not travel far outside their country of production. Instead, African directors tend to cover serious sociopolitical ground, even under the cover of comedy, in the hopes of finding funds outside Africa. Contributors to this volume draw on filmic representations of the continent to consider the economic role of women, rural exodus, economic migration, refugees and diasporas, culture, religion and magic as well as representations of children, music, languages and symbols. A survey of national cinemas in one volume, Directory of World Cinema: Africa is a necessary addition to the bookshelf of any cinephile and world traveller.
