The book "The Person and African Traditions in a Perspective of Inculturation" is an informative and detailed study of the concept of a person in the rich foundations of African traditions. Set in a world increasingly becoming globalized and where the dignity and integrity of the individual are threatened, it gives insight into the modalities through which African cultures handle and protect the essence of the human person. The collection of research presented by various contributors from Sub-Saharan Africa, focuses on issues of complexity regarding personhood, identity, and community in African contexts, providing deep reflections on the persistent values on which human dignity and integrity rest. This is an important text to be included in the library of scholars, practitioners, and those who have an interest in studying the dimensions of African cultures.
