African Worlds Studies in the Cosmological Ideas and Social Values of African Peoples

This series of Classics in African Anthropology is primarily drawn from a distinct family of texts which dominated the academic analysis of society in mid-20th century Africa. The texts are significant yet often neglected, but have stood the test of time, according to the editors. Originally published in 1954. New edition published in association with the International African Institute North America: Transaction Books; Germany: Lit Verlag
