“This book challenges colonial and age-old Western academic views
that have dominated and marginalised African indigenous knowledge
system. It spreads further the wings of knowledge and endeavour about an
African way of thinking on conflict resolution and co-existence, and
analytically connects this to the pursuit of Africa’s sustainable
development frameworks. Ohta, Nyamnjoh and Matsuda are teachers you
always wished for but never had. Together, they have made this book a
path-breaking one, and essential reading for a broad based understanding
of the African mindset.”
