There has long been a need for a new textbook on West Africas history. In Themes in West Africas History, editor Emmanuel Kwaku Akyeampong and his contributors meet this need, examining key themes in West Africas prehistory to the present through the lenses of their different disciplines.The contents of the book comprise an introduction and thirteen chapters divided into three parts. Each chapter provides an overview of existing literature on major topics, as well as a short list of recommended reading, and breaks new ground through the incorporation of original research. The first part of the book examines paths to a West African past, including perspectives from archaeology, ecology and culture, linguistics, and oral traditions. Part two probes environment, society, and agency and historical change through essays on the slave trade, social inequality, religious interaction, poverty, disease, and urbanization. Part three sheds light on contemporary West Africa in exploring how economic and political developments have shaped religious expression and identity in significant ways.Themes in West Africas History represents a range of intellectual views and interpretations from leading scholars on West Africas history. It will appeal to college undergraduates, graduate students, and scholars in the way it draws on different disciplines and expertise to bring together key themes in West Africas history, from prehistory to the present.
