Available  literature and academic practice in African philosophy since the 1960s have  largely featured discourses in the areas of origin, general meaning and nature  of the discipline, with little attention given to specialized areas. By  contrast, this book examines a noticeable shifting focus from such general  concerns to more specific subject-matter, in such areas as epistemology, moral  philosophy, metaphysics, aesthetics, and social and political philosophy in  the light of the African experience. The volume includes specific discourses  from expert contributors on the nature, history and scope of African ethics  and metaphysics, while also discussing particular themes in African  epistemology, philosophy of education, existentialism and political  philosophy.  Researchers seeking for new  perspective on African philosophy will find this work thought-provoking,  instructive and informative. \u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp\u003eIsaac E.
