We are thrilled to announce the release of In and Outside Africa, a remarkable new book penned by a retired Swiss diplomat whose life’s work has granted him a unique lens on the world. This isn’t just a story—it’s an odyssey stretching across millennia, diving deep into the heart of the human condition with a narrative that bridges civilisations and the essence of human evolution.
From the cradle of civilisation in Africa to the rugged expanses of the Wild West, In and Outside Africa explores the threads of evolution fused with anecdotes of the author’s life. The author takes us back to our animal past, to the raw and instinctual roots of existence, and guides us forward to that pivotal moment when Homo sapiens took their first steps beyond the African continent. It’s a tale of evolution—not just biological but emotional, cultural, and spiritual—painting a vivid picture of how we’ve grown, stumbled, and thrived across time.
In and Outside Africa isn’t just a book to read; it’s a journey to feel. Mystery Publishers invites you to step into this sweeping narrative and discover the story of us all—where we’ve been, what we’ve become, and the timeless forces that continue to shape our world. Available now on Amazon and from Nuria Bookstore in Nairobi, Kenya—grab your copy and let the adventure begin.
