"Professor Wiredu has brought together the leading scholars of
African philosophy, and provided us with up-to-date assessments of
such vital topics as the history of African philosophy, African
philosophy and postcolonial studies, and the relationship between
world view and critical thinking. This is a balanced and judicious
collection that exposes the student to all the major issues and
schools." Ivan Karp, Emory University
"The extensive bibliography confirms the existence of African
philosophy and supports the argument for its rightful place
alongside other philosophies. . . The essays in this book are
informative and compelling. The book is a product of commendable
effort and provides its readers with much enlightenment."
African Studies Review
“…this Companion goes beyond evaluating African philosophy spoken, written, sung, danced, sculpted, or painted prior to itself; it becomes itself the most complete and thoughtful anthology of African thought, the area’s most valuable work published as yet.” Heythrop Journal
