description: This is the first major collection for over a decade on the subject of African religion. It is part of a continuous stock taking. This book provides the views of some of the most distinguished academics in the context of African history, anthropology, archaeology, politics, comparative religion, health and healing, languages, literature, and the visual and performing arts. This book stems from a conference entitled "Religion in The Variety of Religious Experience in Sub-Saharan Africa" held a Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah, 22-25 October 1986. Scholars from four continents who study religious expression throughout all the major regions of Africa and in the African Diaspora in the Americas gave presentations on a diverse array of topics. They discussed research conducted in forty African nations, spanning a broad range of religious traditions on the continent.
