While there are five important festschriften on Toyin Falola and his work, this book fulfills the need for a single-authored volume that can be useful as a textbook. I develop clearly articulated rubrics and overarching concepts as the foundational basis for analyzing Falola's work.

Abdul Karim Bangura is Professor of Political Science and Research Methodology in the Department of Political Science at Howard University, USA.
