Kayd Somali Arts & Culture in partnership with Somaliland Focus (UK) invites you to the launch of a new book. Come and join us on the launch day to discuss this new book with the author: Professor HUSSEIN A. BULHAN. The world has come to know the anarchy, war & death in Somalia from newspapers & TV reports. Those who wish to understand the causes of this cataclysmic explosion of violence & implosion of rage must delve into Somali history from the late nineteenth century to the end of the twentieth century. This event offers an opportunity to debate, discuss and ask direct questions about the book and its challenging subject matter.
Professor H. A. Bulhan studied at Wesleyan University , Boston University , and Harvard University . Following service as a tenured professor at Boston University and the Director of the Family Therapy Program at Boston University Medical Centre, Prof. Bulhan started a health consulting firm whose annual revenues quickly grew to US$25M. He returned to Somaliland to mediate a conflict in 1994-1996, subsequently remaining in the country to help in socio-economic rebuilding and trauma treatment. At present, Prof. Bulhan is President of the University of Hargeisa and the Chief Clinician of the Maan-dhaye Clinic.
