Clifford VauehanZambezia is the journal of the University of Rhodesia and its publication has been made possible bya generous grant from the Library and Publications Committee of the University. The title Zambeziahas been chosen to convey a primary interest in the life of human societies in countries on, or around,the Zambezi; and it is hoped that the name will carry the same wide interest and reference that it did in.the past.The Editorial Board plans to produce the journal once a year and will welcome contributions in thefield of local art and literature, education, sociology, social medicine, political science, history, linguistics,and indeed in any aspects of society.
