Africa Counts: Number and Pattern in African Cultures by Claudia Zaslavsky is an exploration of the mathematical concepts and practices found in African cultures. The book challenges the stereotype that mathematical ideas did not exist in Africa outside of Egyptian influence. Zaslavsky provides a comprehensive look at the various ways in which different African peoples have used numbers, patterns, and geometric shapes in their daily lives, art, architecture, and cultural rituals. She examines counting systems, numerical proverbs, games, and other activities to illustrate the presence and sophistication of mathematical thought across the continent. The book also discusses the influence of African mathematics on other cultures and the importance of recognizing these contributions to the history of mathematics. Zaslavsky's work is a significant contribution to the understanding of cultural anthropology and the global history of mathematics.
