Description

by Laurenti Magesa (Author)

This is the first comprehensive exploration of the moral and ethical imperatives of African religion that treats the religious tradition of Africa as an equal among the world's faiths. Laurenti Magesa argues that, just as Christianity or Islam do, traditional African religion defines how people ought to live. By integrating the natural, the human, and the spiritual its moral teachings delineate distinctive values, norms and principles which promote standard of spiritual abundance, and also infuse community life with meaning and harmony.
