Yoruba Philosophical Ways Of Reasoning : An Introduction

This is a philosophical series book that make attempt at laying a foundation for a critical Yoruba philosophy. The focus is on definition and clarification of difficult philosophical concepts which are rooted in the intellectual history of the Yoruba people, and to explore the ways and manners the Yoruba people, from time past, perceived the world around them and live in it.By taking into account the different philosophical orientations existing among the people, the write-ups call to question the indiscriminate generalization often made by many scholars about the beliefs and cultural practices of the people. Aside this, part of these series delves vigorously into speculative philosophy, making use of valuable traditional concepts to espouse a well grounded philosophy which the author believes might be of use to scholars in developing and advancing a refined Yoruba philosophical thought system.
