"The Family in Sub-Saharan Africa and Madagascar" is an invaluable tool for all scholars, policymakers, and all persons interested in understanding the role of family in African societies yesterday and today. Looking through these pages, one realizes how significant the documentation collected is, the investigations into specific traditions, the direct testimony of customs and obligations still being practised regarding marriage ceremonies, and how incisive the interventions both in the ecclesial and sociological spheres are at an academic level. The context of this book is the changing ethical codes and evolving family organization structures globally, which can be also seen in how African family systems are adaptive to social, economic, and cultural changes and their resilience. By exploring these features and challenges of unique families in Sub-Saharan Africa and Madagascar, the book is a must-read.
