Andrew Mwenda of The Independent called it "a book that combines intellectual depth with practical hands-on business experience. It is a must-read for those interested in the challenge to creating wealth through private entrepreneurial innovation and talent in Africa."〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.independent.co.ug/the-last-word/the-last-word/7453-a-good-african-story )〕 Harriet Lamb called it a good read.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.managementtoday.co.uk/books/1171964/Good-African-Story-small-company-built-global-coffee-brand-Andrew-Rugasira---review/ )〕 Stephen Timm of Business Day called it "an inspiring story of how the continent is fast turning itself around" He added that "Africa needs more entrepreneurs to tell how they did it." T. J. Strydom for the Times notes that "the story is a hopeful one and does show the first glimpses of how "trade not aid" should transform our continent." But he notes that "the book shows too much of Uganda's sad colonial (and post-colonial) past, and too little of Rugasira's entrepreneurial story. It could have been a decent in-depth feature article in a good magazine, not a book on its own."〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://bookslive.co.za/blog/2013/07/25/quick-review-a-good-african-story-by-andrew-rugasira/ )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「A Good African Story: How a Small Company Built a Global Coffee Brand」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
