      Acknowledgments

      My research has had the generous support of the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) Summer Language Study Grant and Postdoctoral Research Grant, the Council on Library and Information Resources (CLIR) Mellon Fellowship for Dissertation Research in Original Sources, the Social Science Research Council—International Dissertation Research Fellowship, the Berlin Program for Advanced German and European Studies, the Mellon Interdisciplinary Graduate Fellows Program of the Institute for Social and Economic Research and Policy (now the Interdisciplinary Center for Innovative Theory and Empirics) at Columbia University, the American Council of Learned Societies—Mellon Dissertation Completion Fellowship, and the American Historical Association Bernadotte Schmitt Grant. At the University of Pittsburgh, the completion of this project has been supported by the Dietrich School of Arts and Sciences, the Richard D. and Mary Jane Edwards Endowed Publication Fund, and the University Center for International Studies Hewlett International Grant.

      I am grateful to my editors in the New African Histories series at Ohio University Press—Jean Allman, Allen Isaacman, and Derek Peterson—for their thoughtful guidance; the manuscript’s anonymous readers also provided insightful and constructive comments. My sincere thanks to Gillian Berchowitz, Rick Huard, Nancy Basmajian, and the Ohio University Press staff for shepherding this book so expertly through development and completion, and to Brian Edward Balsley for his thoughtful and diligent cartographic expertise.

      Earlier versions of chapter four were published, in part, as “Medical Auxiliaries and the Negotiation of Public Health in Colonial North-Western Tanzania” in the Journal of African History 54, no. 3 (2013): 393–416 and as “Ziba Politics and the German Sleeping Sickness Camp at Kigarama, Tanzania, 1907–14” in the International Journal of African Historical Studies 47, no. 3 (2014): 399–423.

      My deepest appreciation to Gregory Mann, Volker Berghahn, David Rosner, and Deborah Coen of Columbia University for their support of a transnational, intercolonial history of health, research, and everyday life with sleeping sickness at its center. Julie Livingston’s probing questions and intellectual creativity were also central to how this book took shape. Marcia Wright and Nancy Leys Stepan were the bedrock of my doctoral studies, serving as mentors and models for a life of teaching and research. My thanks also to faculty whose support was instrumental during my years at Columbia: Betsy Blackmar, Matt Connelly, Victoria de Grazia, Barbara Fields, Carol Gluck, Matt Jones, Adam McKeown, Susan Pedersen, Sam Roberts, Pamela Smith, and Lisa Tiersten. The enduring collegiality and friendship of Bill McAllister, now of the Interdisciplinary Center for Innovative Theory and Empirics (INCITE), has been both a great benefit to my work and a great joy. I am also grateful for the critical and constructive engagement of the 2009–11 Mellon Interdisciplinary Graduate Fellows at INCITE (formerly ISERP) at Columbia University.

      A postdoctoral fellowship in African Studies and Global Health, Culture, and Society at Emory University gave me a stimulating and supportive intellectual home for crucial years in this project’s development. Clifton Crais and Peter J. Brown were ever conscientious and supportive mentors. Many other Emory faculty welcomed me in a model of collegiality and fellowship. Among them, I thank Kristin D. Phillips, Mary Frederickson and Clint Joiner, Uriel Kitron, Peter Little, Kristin Mann, Elizabeth McBride, Amy Patterson, Tom Rogers, Sita Ranchod-Nilsson, Pamela Scully, Sydney Spangler, Nathan Suhr-Sytsma, and Subha Xavier, as well as Aubrey Graham, Kara Moskowitz, and Jill Rosenthal. At Georgia Tech, Anne Pollack and John Krige offered me another set of engaging interdisciplinary interlocutors. My thanks also to Jeffrey Koplan and the staff at the Emory Global Health Institute and to Paul Emerson, Moses Katabarwa, and Frank O. Richards, Jr., of the Carter Center.

      Since coming to the University of Pittsburgh, I’ve enjoyed a wonderful group of colleagues who work every day with energy, creativity, and dedication. My particular thanks to Raja Adal, Laura Lovett, James Pickett, Lara Putnam, Marcus Rediker, and Amir Syed for their critical attention to specific pieces of the book. My gratitude, too, to colleagues past and present: Reid Andrews, Elizabeth Archibald, Keisha Blain, Bill Chase, Sy Drescher, Urmi Engineer, Niklas Frykman, Larry Glasco, Michel Gobat, Laura Gotkowitz, Janelle Greenberg, Maurine Greenwald,
