In Purposeful Education for Africa, originally published in 1964, K. A. Busia writes cogently and perceptively about a philosophy of education for the huge diverse complex called Africa. With his knowledge of both Africa and the West, this combination of perception would provide a stimulus to those concerned with the broadest and deepest aspects of education in Africa at the time. Based on his own studies in all types of schools throughout Africa in the early 1960s, he takes the best elements from out of Africa as well as within, seeking to provide a social philosophy of education to help fulfil national aspirations and goals. Reissued here with a new introduction it asks many questions still being discussed today.
