Gail Presbey is Professor of Philosophy and Affiliate Faculty in History at the University of Detroit Mercy, USA.
Presbey takes the reader right into the events and influences that shaped H. Odera Oruka. She skillfully provides the context for understanding Oruka’s thought and legacy as well as making sense of the discussions within African Philosophy. * Sam Imbo, Professor of Philosophy, Hamline University, USA. * This long-awaited book is a detailed study of the development of one of Africa's most influential philosophers in the second half of the 20th century: Henry Odera Oruka. Oruka, who became best known for his Sage philosophy project, was a tireless advocate for democracy and human rights in Africa and repeatedly intervened in the political debates of his time. Presbey traces the path of his thought in detail and provides unique insights into the debates in African philosophy of the 1960s to 1990s. * Anke Graness, Researcher in History of Philosophy and Philosophy in Africa, Foundation University of Hildesheim, Germany * The work weaves delicately but concisely the life and thoughts of one of the major figures in contemporary African philosophy. H. Odera Oruka’s philosophy exemplifies applied philosophy to pertinent issues of our time such as human equality and dignity, freedom and human rights, poverty, global justice and environmental philosophy. * Oriare Nyarwath, PhD, Senior Lecturer of Philosophy, University of Nairobi, Kenya *
