Historical and current educational perspectives are epistemologically challenging to weave together. The contributors brought together in this book have risen to that challenge and, in the process, have produced a detailed and thorough account of the issues and processes at play.

The book is an important new contribution to African philosophy, cultural anthropology, African traditional religion, cosmology and African metaphysics. It will appeal to scholars and students in a wide range of related disciplines.

This book discusses the main challenges to aid effectiveness in Africa, with a specific focus on the health sector.
