Sobre IBD

In this book Maduabuchi Dukor seeks to articulate an authentic African Philosophy, one which is distinct and at its heart is a unique combination of holding that the enhancement of human interest is the ultimate end, albeit set in a world imbued with imperceptible agents such as God, lesser divinities, and ancestors. Dukor applies this ’theistic humanism’ to a variety of debates, including idealism/materialism, mind/body, and determinism/indeterminism.
