African Philosophy: Selected Readings by Albert G. Mosley is a comprehensive anthology that introduces and explores the breadth and depth of African philosophical thought. The text presents a wide array of writings from various African thinkers, addressing key issues in African philosophy such as identity, ethics, metaphysics, politics, and the influence of colonialism.

The selections highlight both traditional African philosophical perspectives, rooted in indigenous cultures and practices, as well as contemporary thought that engages with global philosophical traditions. This work aims to provide a clear and accessible overview of African philosophy while also challenging stereotypes and misconceptions about the intellectual traditions of the African continent.

Key themes in the book include:
  1. African Ethics and Morality – Exploring the communal and relational dimensions of ethics in African societies.
  2. Metaphysics and Ontology – Examining questions of existence, reality, and the nature of being from an African perspective.
  3. Political Philosophy – Analyzing African political structures and the impact of colonialism and independence movements.
  4. African Identity and Selfhood – Investigating the concepts of identity and the self in African thought, particularly in relation to the impact of Western modernity.

The collection serves as both an introduction to African philosophy and a resource for those interested in deeper philosophical inquiry. It is valuable for students and scholars alike, particularly those looking to engage with the diverse and evolving philosophical landscape of Africa.
