What does the African think? What is he trying to achieve in life? How often have these questions been posed. Is his philosophy different from that of the White man? In this book Professor Michael Gelfand, who has spent nearly thirty years in Rhodesia and is the author of many books dealing with that country and its history, attempts to explain the ethical behavior of the Shona-speaking people, comparing it with other tribal societies in Africa. The book deals in detail with the customs and religious beliefs of the African.
