The
Power of African Cultures
Toyin Falola
An analysis of the ties between culture
and every aspect of African life, using Africa's past to
explain present situations.
Falola . . . approaches
the subject of African history and cultural transformation
with enthusiasm and conviction. . . . [F]amiliar themes
[are] presented here with a twist that touches the nerve of
Africanist scholarship in a manner that conveys the
intellectual ferment arising from African universities and
transferred through scholarly migration to universities in
North America. . . . Professor Falola is truly a most
distinguished Africanist historian, with a reflective and
critical voice that builds on the fine tradition of Nigerian
scholarship of Ajayi, Afigbo, Alagoa and others. AFRICAN
