Summary
Through The Healing Wisdom of Africa, readers can come to understand that the life of indigenous and traditional people is a paradigm for an intimate relationship with the natural world that both surrounds us and is within us. The book is the most complete study of the role ritual plays in the lives of African people--and the role it can play for seekers in the West.
From the publisher
First line
What the indigenous world offers to the modern world centers around the understanding of the concepts of healing ritual and community.
