Identities, tested philosophies, practices and aesthetics of communities are embedded on every page the reader turns. A timely and relevant book at this juncture when Africa seems to have culturally thrown the baby out with the bathwater.' (Godfrey Asiimwe, Associate Professor of Development Studies, Makerere University).…
