In fourteen essays, leading scholars consider the nature and impact of the transatlantic slave trade and assess its meaning for the people transported and for those who owned them.\u003cbr\u003eAmong the questions these essays address are: the social cost to Africa of this forced migration; the role of slavery in the economic development of Europe and the United States; the short-term and long-term effects of the slave trade on black mortality, health, and life in the New World; and the racial and cultural consequences of the abolition of slavery. Some of these essays originally appeared in recent issues of \u003ci\u003eSocial Science History\u003c\/i\u003e; the editors have added new material, along with an introduction placing each essay in the context of current debates.\u003cbr\u003eBased on extensive archival research and detailed historical examination, this collection constitutes an important contribution to the study of an issue of enduring significance. It is sure to become a standard reference on the Atlantic slave trade for years to come.\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eContributors.\u003c\/i\u003e Ralph A.
