by Dr. Jacob H. Carruthers, used rare book

"Cheikh Anta Diop has raised the questions of whether the African philosophical tradition can pose a paradigm for a philosophy more responsive to human needs than the myriad of conflicting messages European philosophy offers. This volume is undoubtedly a contribution to that project. What one finds here is not only a critical challenge to the Eurocentric interpretation of ancient Egypt and by extension, African history and culture, but equally imnportant the outlines of a paradigm of Afrocentric analysis vital to intellectual self-determination and development."---Dr. Maulana Karenga
