By highlighting the importance of always considering the concept of time alongside aspects of the universe or cosmos, Remi Prospero Fonka succinctly and with meticulous methodology, avails the opportunity for an understanding of the measurement of African time. The cross-cultural confrontations especially with phenomenological existentialists makes this book a necessary tool for students and researchers in Multicultural studies, African philosophy, Cosmology, African Traditional Religion, and African Metaphysics. -Valentine Banfegha Ngalim, Associate Professor of Philosophy, The University of Bamenda, Cameroon This book is most certainly a first in the study of the Nso concept of time. Remi Prospero Fonka has excavated, carefully analyzed and presented in readable form, a complex metaphysics of time within the Nso worldview. Students and researchers in African cultural studies, philosophy, anthropology and sociology will find this book a useful resource. Those interested in comparative philosophy will also find in this book a cross-cultural phenomenological confrontation with Western cosmo-metaphysical models. -Nelson Shang, Lecturer of Philosophy, The University of Bamenda and The Catholic University of Cameroon (CATUC), Bamenda
